The 18" A series Thin crash is my all time favorite but the A Customs are just incredible as well - the have a glassy quality to them.

A Customs have a brilliant finish making them look amazing under stage lights whereas A's have traditional finish.

18" inches' sound amazing from both series, just compare them side by side and buy which ever one floats your boat (so to speak...)

...OR ZINGS YOUR PING,

OR RIDES YOUR PRIDE,

OR CRASHES YOUR GOULASHES!

( ok seriously I've got a couple of ACUSTOM fast crashes 14" and 16". best crashes ever! )

The A customs are brighter then the As, I personally prefer the warmer tone of the As but I know a lot of metal and punk drummer swear by the A customs
