General
The 18-inch Meinl china cymbal will feel right at home with any band, percussion group or orchestra. Its brash, trashy sound allows you to optimally punctuate certain parts of your music. This china has a remarkably quick, devastating attack with lengthy sustain, which will go nicely with virtually any type of music.
Meinl's unique brilliant finish
The Meinl Mb8 series china is made of B8 bronze, which consists of 92% copper and 8% tin with trace amounts of silver. That means this cymbal is durable enough for you to really lay into it, and incorporate it into the most hard-core drum solos you can imagine. Furthermore, this cymbal was polished to give it the glossy brilliant finish that Meinl's Mb8 cymbals are known for.
