Wuhan 17-inch Koi Series Crash Cymbal — B20 Bronze Craftsmanship, Unlathed Bell & Expressive Dark Wash
Representing Wuhan's top-tier cymbal design, the Wuhan 17-inch Koi Series Crash Cymbal bridges traditional Asian hand-casting techniques with modern sonic versatility. Handcrafted from premium B20 bronze alloy, the Koi Series crash offers drummers an expressive blend of dark, complex undertones and explosive projection—making it a boutique-quality addition to any drum kit at an accessible price point.
The standout feature of the 17-inch Koi Crash is its raw, unlathed bell contrasted against a precision-lathed and hand-hammered bow. This distinct dual-finish design isolates the bell sound for punchy, articulate accents while allowing the bow to open up quickly into a smooth, dark crash with a warm decay and musical sustain.
Key Features
- B20 Bronze Alloy Construction: Hand-cast using the industry-standard 80% copper and 20% tin formula for rich, musical harmonics and long-term durability.
- Hand-Hammered & Lathed Bow: Carefully hammered by skilled artisans to deliver complex frequency response, smooth stick response, and a dark, opening crash.
- Raw Unlathed Bell: Unlathed bell design controls overtones, producing an articulate, dry bell strike and focused fundamental pitch.
- Dynamic 17-Inch Medium-Thin Weight: Offers the perfect balance between fast response and full-bodied projection, cutting through live mixes without sounding harsh or glassy.
- Distinctive Koi Series Aesthetics: Laser-engraved Koi logo and contrasting finish provide a high-end visual appeal on stage and in the studio.
