"Like all my K cymbals this one sounds excellent. Needed a 16" to round out my 17",19",22" ride, and 14" High Hats. (all K's) I love Kiss. Now I just need an 18". Any deals? Lol."
"These modern crashes are the finest K Custom crashes created by Zildjian to date. The sound is exquisite! Some people are shocked to find them to be so Thin and wish that they were being made heavier. My suggestion would for the company to sort the finished cymbals by weight and note them either Thin or Medium thin. This would solve everyone's concerns when purchasing one. I would also like to see a set of K Custom Fast Hi Hats be developed MT/ M wt. with similar hammering to these K Fast Crashes. And how about an 18" K Custom Fast China & a 10" K Custom Fast Splash as well to complete the set!"
"The 18" K Custom Fast Crash is by far the best cymbal I have ever owned and played! And it's an extremely versatile cymbal for its thin weight. I've had 4 of them so far, and for years they've had their share of hits, and they still respond beautifully. I want 2 more in my set-up for a total of 6! My genre of playing is Gospel music, and the 18" K Custom Fast Crash is one that I will always play. So Zildjian, please don't ever discontinue this model! I would like to suggest K Custom Fast HI Hats, a K Custom Fast Splash and a K Custom Fast China in the future, and perhaps even 19" and 20" K Custom Fast Crashes! You make 'em, and I'll buy 'em!!!!!"
