cymbal symbol......
Cymbal or symbol
I think it "is" "symbol" rather than cymbal as "cymbal" is the homophone" "drummers kit, say" in the clue, and "symbol" IS the sign.

emmie had her nose ahead at the post, but well done both of you.
Y is a given letter & there's one in the correct position. Unfortunately, it doesn't help distinguish between the two. Normally, the correct answer should be symbol, as JJ says, but sometimes an Alphapuzzle setter turns the rules on their head. I'll do the puzzle & provide the answer.
thank you

It's definitely symbol. There's a clue elsewhere in the puzzle where the first letter of the answer is doubled, and CC couldn't fit but SS does.

Solvers need to be careful to get V & X the right way round.

Symbol ... 10,21,1,6,19,23 ... Q is 5
