I'm selling this because I no longer use it. It has a very good sound. It's 17 inches, but it was originally 18 inches. I had a professional do the cutting, so you can rest assured. It wasn't cut because it was cracked; I intentionally made it smaller. It has a very tight sound. I haven't cleaned it because it changes the sound. - Brand: Meinl - Model: Byzance - Color: Gold - Features: Crash cymbal Please refrain from purchasing if you are sensitive to used items. I have other items for sale as well. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
