The ZBT 12″ is a bit more than you need for that. But, as a small crash, it works pretty well. I played it in the bedroom for a while, and it was a ton of fun. My headphones mitigated the slight boxiness of its tone, and it wasn’t so loud that I refrained from really smacking it. If one of these turns up in your pile of birthday presents, don’t send it back!" <br>

'''Review:''' "I’m not usually a big fan of 12" splash cymbals. But in the right context, the ZBT 12" splash should prove to be a welcome voice. It has a bright, full sound with a little weight, but it’s fast and transparent enough to keep it from sounding like a tiny crash. I can see this cymbal working well in a rock or metal context, as well as in the practice room."

Review: "12″ is the large end of the spectrum for splash cymbals, and the ZBT 12″ splash is, to my ears, more of a “small crash” than a splash. Why? Because it’s a bit heavy sounding, where most splashes give just a slip of a note. A good splash cymbal should fit the drum-tag after a joke’s punchline: ba-da-pssh.

The ZBT 12″ is a bit more than you need for that. But, as a small crash, it works pretty well. I played it in the bedroom for a while, and it was a ton of fun. My headphones mitigated the slight boxiness of its tone, and it wasn’t so loud that I refrained from really smacking it. If one of these turns up in your pile of birthday presents, don’t send it back!"
