Wondering if anyone has experience or insight into "crash" cymbals in manufacturers "jazz" lines. I have noticed crash cymbals, usually 16" or 18" diameter, in the Agop SE Jazz and Mehmet MC Jazz lines, for example.
How ride-able might these be, say, in an acoustic piano duo? Are they quite similar to the 20" ride versions, simply proportionally smaller/thinner?
I'm new at this, I should mention, and don't live anywhere close to a place to audition these cymbals. I have a 19" Masterwork flat ride, a 24" Mehmet MC Jazz ride, and a 16" Sabian B8 pro crash which is too bright for my taste, but which might be a fun to construct a giant hi hat with a 16" crash, but I would be interested in a low-medium volume rideable 16" if I went that way.
Thanks!
