Discover the raw expressiveness and punchy character of the Sabian S1816 Stratus 18" China cymbal. This cymbal from the Stratus series has a dark, trashy sound, typical of Chinese cymbals, but with surprising musicality and versatility.

Made from quality B20 bronze, it benefits from Stratus high-impact hammering, which contributes to its explosive response and relatively short, controlled sustain. This model excels at creating dramatic, percussive accents. Its sharp attack and complex, slightly dirty wash add a unique colour to your sound palette.

Unlike some more traditional Chinese cymbals, the cymbal provides a balance that allows it to be integrated into a variety of musical genres, from rock and metal to more experimental styles. Its 18-inch size gives it a strong sonic presence without being overly intrusive. It's ideal for punctuating breaks, underlining section changes or adding a distinctive percussive texture to your grooves.
