Candidates are:
20'' Z Custom China
20'' A China High
20'' A Custom China
Wotcher think?

 Re: Zildjian Chinazzzz
The Z might get you a higher pitch due to it's thickness, but won't the A's produce pitches lower than the K Custom due to the larger size?

Might I humbly suggest checking out a 16" Zildjian Oriental China Trash? I played that as my main china when I played Zildjian, and it still remains my all-time favorite effects cymbal. Very short, sharp, and trashy. Worth a look.

Yeah my best bets are on getting:
Zildjian Oriental China Trash 18''
Zildjian K Custom Hybrid China 19''
Or maybe instead of that K Custom I'll get another china trash. Dunno I'm not getting another china first, I'm actually getting an A Custom 16'' Crash. Just makin' plans for later purchases. (Since my income is approx. $50 per month  )

i have the 20" a custom.
its crazy loud. im only aloud to play it on stage or by myself.(band orders)
its got super nice attack. and a quick decay. i loved it the first time i hit it (the day it came in). so after the show that night i had my boss open up the store and sell it to me right then.

i agree the medium size china trashes are better than normal chinas, but if you were to pick one of your shortlist it would be the Z Custom one. i too used the china trash as my main (and only...) china in my Zil days
