Zildjian's Description: <<< - >>>
Review: "I believe Zildjian calls these two China splashes because of their sharply angular bells and the straight line of their bow in profile. They look very much like bronze miniatures of coolie hats from Southeast Asia. How do they sound? The 10″ ZHT China splash sounds great.
It speaks quickly, and whatever harshness you’d expect to find from a budget alloy is sweetly camouflaged by the Oriental kah sound. The sandy attack is mixed well with a sweet, quick decay, making helping it earn the China in its name.
The 8″ ZHT China splash is more like a chime or bell sound mixed with a short splash body. Both are definitely “effects” cymbals. So if you’re looking for a regular splash cymbal, keep looking. But if you’re looking for inexpensive fun sounds to add to your kit, stop and give a listen. There’s cheap fun here."
