Dream Cymbals PANG18 Pang China Cymbal, 18"

An 18" Pang: a china with an inverted bell and a double-flanged edge, which trades some of a classic china's trash for punch. It crashes instantly, with a short, aggressive bark that punches above its weight, and mounted bell-up it doubles as a dry, trashy ride surface.

Contact is Dream's bright, general-purpose series: hand-forged B20 with standard lathing and a medium taper, clear and versatile. Hand-made, so no two are identical.
