Crash/Ride

[Bodacious B]

I'm thinking of getting an 18" heavy/rock crash to use as a crash/ride on a small practice kit. Has anyone encountered any crashes that have a decent ride sound?
I was thinking about an 802 or xs20 since they both seem to get generally good reviews as crashes. Any feedback would be appreciated.

I have a Zildjian 20" K crash/ride its a really nice ride but has a powerful heavy crash to, another reccomendation is the Zildjian A custom sizzle ride, amazing crash sound and an interesting ride sound on account of the rivets. I have no experience with many sabians so i cant help you there i'm afraid

Hi,

If you come upon the 18" Sabian El Sabor, give that a shot or two.
Great crash, decent ride and killer bell! Got mine at Guitar Center
for about $125. Seen them on ebay in $80 range.
