Description

Most cymbals on the market today have Turkish or European influence. However, WUHAN has defined the Oriental sound for centuries. To better understand their popularity, let's look at Wuhan's history and some of the products they offer. For over 1900 years Wuhan has made cast, hand-hammered cymbals in China. In fact, the Chinese have been credited with inventing the cymbal for use as a musical instrument. Wuhan is well known for their china and gong cymbals. However many people don't realize that they also produce a line of "western" style cymbals. In fact, Universal Percussion, Inc. who owns Wuhan contributed to the creation of an excellent line of professional quality cymbals that include a traditional, rock, and bright series. Each model is offered at prices below competing cymbals and are covered by Wuhan's one year breakage guarantee (which will replace any cymbal within a year of purchase- no questions asked). Wuhan's china cymbals range in size from 12" to 27". They offer rivets in the 16", 18", 20", & 22" sizes. They are describes as dark, explosive and trashy with distinct tonalities.

    • LOUD LOUD LOUD LOUD and AWESOMELY PERFECT SOUNDING china cymbal
EASILY the best sounding china cymbal brand out there, and the most affordable. Group my comments along with all the rest of the similar ones found in the other reviews. That alone speaks volumes for the sound of this cymbal. I don't think it's a coincidence that the best sounding china cymbals come from China, which is kind of amusing. There's one downside to this cymbal and that is it's L O U D!!!!!!!!!! The first time I hit it it was instant ringing ears...for real. My old Paiste china was louder than all my other cymbals, but this one is 5 times as loud and rips at your ear drums giving you instant tinnitus. To me it sounds like it's mounted directly on my head and focused directly into my ear. I had to use my VF isolation headphones as "hearing protection" since purchasing it, and that's no joke. I don't hit any of my cymbals overly hard, and it looks like I'll need to get used going extra light on this one. I have it positioned so it's both at the proper angle but out of the "sweet spot" as much as possible as far as the proper striking point goes. Hopefully you guys/gals know what I'm trying to say. Maybe some painters tape dampening or a moon gel near the center will help. Oh well, it's WELL worth it for the awesome and PROPER "PAHHH" sound this thing makes. If I could change anything other than the loudness of this cymbal, it's that Wuhan would spend the extra fricken 25 cents on printing the logo on BOTH sides of the cymbal. IDK, it just bugs me, and it's certainly a bit of a missed opportunity as far as brand ID/advertising goes. I may have to look into Wuihan's other B20 bronze alloy offerings. It's the same alloy as many of Zildjian, Sabian and Meinl's higher end cymbals. The rest of my cymbals, Paiste PST 5's are of their CuSn8 alloy, AKA B8. Though the PST5's sound VERY nice for the price, they're DISTINCTLY different from the more musical CuSn20/B20 alloy used in higher end cymbals, the latter being FAR more musically pleasing to my ear anyway. The CuSn8/B8 alloy tends to sound more "clanky" and cheap sounding IMO. I think as drummers we all know that being frugal on the drums usually works out, while being frugal on the cymbals usually leads to buying cymbals twice....hence why they cost so much to begin with. "Buy Once, Cry Once". It's a good way to look at many purchases. ... show more

    • A M A Z I N G !
Great buy right here.! I recently put up a review for a 14 inch Wuhan Chin, and now for the 18 inch. Right there should notice i bought myself a second Wuhan Chine. :) From my other review i've said that the 14 inch sounds amazing. And so does the 18 inch. I gotta say these are my favorite china cymbals. They are cheap in price and sound like the real deal. I find no point in now going out and buying those more expensive chine cymbals. Yes u can take the chance in cracking these things easier or more quickly but for the price who really cares. Plus if u know how to properly hit a cymbal it should last u a long time. I've had never had any of my cymbals crack. My other cymbals are Zildjian A Customs. So far i have had the Wuhan China's for a few months now and no problems. Only real problem is that i get mad that i didn't know about these cymbals sooner lol. Buy these damn china cymbals!!! LoL Highly recommend them. ... show more

    • Very deep sound, no rivets as viewed in photos
The sound on this is very deep, much like a gong bell. Not quick and crisp like I had heard on YouTube. Also there are no rivets or rivet holes as advertised in the photos.

    • Best China Ever
Don't look anywhere else. These china's are the model that big cymbal companies try to copy for their chinas, and mostly fail IMO.

    • Was it broken and fixed, or just poorly made?
This is the 3rd Wuhan cymbal I've purchased online. The first was the 12" splash and it's pretty good. The problem is with the other 2 Wuhan cymbals I've purchased and had to return both. Both the 14" crash and now this 18" china cymbal were both between 1/4 and 3/4 of an inch smaller than the stated sized. On both, the edge looks like the cymbal was cut smaller and a grinder was used to smooth the cut marks, leaving a sharp, square edge that would destroy drum sticks. Also, the 18" china didn't sound like any china I've ever played. It sounds more like a gong. Not what I'm looking for. ... show more

    • What a disappointment.
I bought a whole Wuhan set - hats, 16" and 18" thin crashes, 20" medium ride, and this thing. I LOVE (LOVE) every cymbal I purchased, except this one. What a dog - and ironic too since you'd expect gong makers to be able to turn out a decent china crash. While the thin crashes have a gorgeous dark, smooth, washy sound, this china let loose with an ear slitting KANG. I wanted to ride this thing during metal breakdowns, so I was hoping for a trashy, washy, dark, sort of airy sound - but the harshness and loudness and lack of tonal quality in this cymbal had me shaking my head in disbelief. With the rest of Wuhan's cymbals, you get amazing sound for a very cheap price. With this one, you get a very cheap sound for a very cheap price. Maybe I'll take the money I saved on the rest of the cymbals, and go for a Byzantine china... ... show more

    • Wuhan China 18in - Loud but Exactly what I wanted!
I've never used a China before this one, but before purchasing it I did my research. And that is what I recommend to anyone! With the wealth of information out there, find out what sound you are looking for and then find out what brand/style/size cymbal you need to produce that sound! I found Amazon reviews and Video reviews on youtube to be my best places to look. As for this particular cymbal, its exactly what I was looking for. Trashy with immediate decay. I have found many uses for it already in different musical ways. I will say that this cymbal is much louder than what I had anticipated. But to be honest, I wouldn't have it any other way. This cymbal is meant to be bashed on... Wuhan makes many different sizes of this version so check them out and see if its the sound you're looking for. My biggest nugget of advice to anyone interested though HAS to be do your research! Because I love this cymbal, not because its the perfect cymbal for everyone... its just what I was looking for! ... show more
