Description
A Custom
- Bright, sweet-sounding crash that speaks very quickly. One of the most in-demand crash cymbal sounds for both studio and live settings.1
Amir
- High-pitched with quick decay, controlled overtones and short sustain. More tightly defined frequency range than cast crash cymbals.2
I
- Bright and fast crash. Great for any musical application.9
Impulse
- Loud, explosive attack. Raw, metallic tone color. Focused overtone threshold for repeated crashes. Exceptional presence and projection.6
K Constantinople
- The K Constantinople Crashes feature a new hammering technique, pin lathing on both sides and a vintage-style cup, preserving the dark, expressive quality of the original line.3
Pitch Black
- (16") For those quick accents. Could even be called a Splash if you are a real hard rocker.
- (18") Clear and substantial with great sustain. A true "go to" workhorse of a Crash cymbal.
Planet Z
- Essential cymbals and sounds for beginners.Great add-on to a Planet Z Fundamentals Pack. Delivers brilliant accents. Cutting, bright tones.8
S Dark
- With an exceptionally quick and sensitive response from the lightest touch, S Dark Crashes are rich and explosive, producing punctuating, dark crash sounds. S Dark Crashes are thin in weight, opening up quickly for accents or when frequent crashing is needed.7
Scimitar
- Crisp, high-pitched tone. Quick response. Fast, smooth decay.4
Scimitar Bronze
- Bright, full-bodied crash that cuts superbly. A sharp, high-pitched attack and colorful, yet fast decay.5
ZBT
- A splendid fast crash with a bright high-pitched tone.11
Z Custom
- Z Custom crashes bring unrivaled power and energy to any drum kit. When heavier music demands maximum volume, Z Custom crashes cut above the on-stage mix and project with brightness, power and loudness.10
