Pearl CX-500 Crash 18 inch Weight: Approximately 1430g Thickness: Medium-thin Material: Brass No cracks or warps. Made by Pearl in the 80s, a Japanese professional cymbal. This model is one of the earliest, featuring the white-letter logo. The sound is light & low-pitched. It has a low, dry sound with the characteristic focused sound of brass. It's easy to handle even as a thin ride cymbal due to its short sustain. I think you don't see these very often. I love Pearl cymbals and have been collecting them, but due to circumstances, I'm reluctantly selling them. Feel free to comment!
