Cymbals

Designed with Chad Smith, all the volume, trash and cut of the Holy China is now available in a China Splash format. With its exaggerated high profile, single row of holes and raw bell, the 8" AA Mini Holy China cuts better than any other cymbal its size.

Unique pairing, modeled after Steve Gadd's personal hihats. The hihats feature a slightly undersized (13 15/16"), medium weight top cymbal and a medium-thin bottom cymbal. A crucial aspect of Steve's playing style, the hihats also have an exceptionally controlled foot feel, capable of producing a full range of dynamic sounds using just the foot. Ideal for any playing or recording situation.
Drawing from the spirit of the legendary K Zildjian range, K Custom cymbals are dark, rich and dry and enable today's drummers to utilize complex K sounds in a more modern musical environment. They feature traditional K hammering, plus a variety of additional modern hammering techniques that produce unique sonic capabilities. Recommended for modern jazz, studio, country and medium rock. K Customs are designed with today's diverse music scene in mind.

The Byzance Dual chinas are already popular for their explosiveness and trashy tonality. By adding holes throughout, the response is much faster and offers more cut. The sustain is also shorter, giving you a cymbal that reacts quickly then gets out of the way so that your other cymbals and sounds on your kit can be heard.

With a double 6-hole ring of response-enhancing holes, the 16" B8X O-Zone responds rapidly with a combination of bright explosion and dirty agitation.

Designed with Zak Starkey, these new 21" K Crash Rides create the "wall of sound" that Zak needs while playing with The Who. The brilliant finish helps to offer additional high-end sparkle and smoothes out the sound. Speaks quickly and is excellent for shouldering with the stick. These latest offerings are the only brilliant finish K models.
K Zildjian cymbals continue to inspire drummers today with their deep, warm, and expressive sounds developed by Kerope Zildjian in 19th Century Turkey. Elaborate hammering and lathing techniques work the Zildjian alloy into versatile cymbals that are dark yet well suited for a wide variety of musical genres from jazz to rock.

Effortless touch and clean sound. This is Meinl Pure Alloy. A timeless voice formed with fully lathed surfaces allows them to be expressive in virtually any style. Their refined nature has two sides: polished definition met by a velvety wash that encompasses a full tonal spectrum. Shimmering, smooth sounds bounce right along with your stick to create a reactive touch that extends through all dynamic levels. These cymbals cut with agility. Blanketing their superb stick definition is a sustain that plays out with just the right amount of strength and balanced wash.

The Pure Alloy Extra Hammered Crash-Ride is a cymbal you can be confident in, and when taken on a gig, it will function however you need. As a crash, it opens easily with a warm voice and medium sustain allowing it to be used in any musical application. As a ride, it features great separation between the stick definition on top and the warm wash underneath, and the bell is clear and pronounced providing plenty of cut when needed. This is a cymbal that any working drummer would benefit from having in their cymbal bag.
