You can't go wrong with these K Custom Dark crashes. Oh hell no.
It cuts, it sings. All these qualities, and with that trash - Perfect.
Would fit comfortably in all genres of music, IMHO. Could use it as a side crash or a smaller ride in a trio; A main crash in a louder funk/rock gig. Pair with an A Custom crash, and you get a pretty nice pair of hats.
Haha if you plan on keeping the 'aged' and dark tones of the cymbal, I agree. Do not clean the cymbals!
I'm not a really a fan of the K Custom Darks compared to the K Darks for me. There's this trashiness to the K Custom Darks. But I feel the attack is smoother than the Ks. That's my take on it.
i own one of these, its my main and favourite crash to hit when playing metal. you have to give it quite a hard hit to get the full bodied and rich tone out though, which can get really loud especially when i play in my room.
thats why i wear ear plugs
