Frequently Asked Questions

It's significantly more aggressive and trashy than a traditional China, lacking the broader wash and focusing on a more direct, cutting sound.
Probably not; its aggressive nature and loud volume make it unsuitable for subtle or delicate musical contexts.
A harder bristle stick, like a 7A or 8A with a nylon tip, will bring out its full aggressive potential.
