pretty decent sound quality
bought this on a total whim after seeing some player forums talk about the 16.10 millimeter diameter size. honestly did not expect much difference from my old one but the response is quite quick and clean in the high register. packaging was a bit flimsy when it arrived ngl, but the piece itself works nicely.

sahi hai rim comfort acha hai
was skeptical about buying this online but needed a replacement urgently. the silver-plated finish looks neat and the medium-wide rim makes long band practices much easier on the lips. delivery took a couple days extra due to rain but overall im satisfied with how it plays across registers.
