Zildjian's Description: <<< - >>>
Review: "As soon as I set up the 17" A Custom crash between a 17" A thin crash and a K dark crash, I understood what Zildjian means when they say the new cymbals are in between A's and K's. The A Custom was significantly fuller and darker than the A thin, and had a lower pitch. In fact, its pitch was comparable to the K dark, but the A Custom emphasized higher overtones than the K, giving it a brighter sound."
