Review: "Zildjian’s ZBT line is one of three lines — ZHT, ZBT, ZXT — aimed at the student and/or budget buyer. ZBT is a “sheet” cymbal line, which means the cymbals are punched out of a large sheet of alloy, cookie-fashion. This is common in budget cymbals. And as with cookies, this is not necessarily a bad thing.

The ZBT 20″ crash/ride would have been perfect Victor. This ride, with its evenly hammered, widely lathed surface, has a well-defined ping. The low wash under the ping is full, but not harsh. There’s a high-pitched wash too that I found to be a tiny bit shrill. However, that bit of low-budget whistle went away when I was under the headphones, jamming along to iTunes"
