Crash cymbal.

Technical description: Single cymbal; bronze; dome diameter 75. High quality cymbal used for dance band / jazz band. Weight 450g. Repair History: Over the years it has been cracked at the rim and these cracks have been repaired by being cut out. This repair is certainly due to the quality of the cymbal as it has an excellent sound and would not be discarded if still playable.
