Cymbals

Drawing from the foundation of other Big Apple rides, this flat ride combines many elements for a unique cymbal. Starting off, the thin weight allows this cymbal to be very expressive regardless of the dynamic level. Next, the unlathed surface and lack of a bell produce razor sharp definition wrapped in an earthy, raw vibe. Finally, there is a slight bow in the shape which adds a roar and hint of sizzle in the wash and creates a low, breathy response when crashed.

This special effects crash cymbal has a unique set of laser generated "cut outs" that allow it to produce a quick, dry and trashy sound used for accenting and punctuating. The brilliant finish makes this "must have" shimmer like any A Custom.
The choice of renowned rock, metal and fusion drummers, A Customs feature a brilliant finish and radical new hammering techniques that deliver a crisp, sweet, sophisticated A Zildjian sound, but with a contemporary feel. A Customs are not too dark and not too bright with a fast response and clean attack.

Like a great recording made even better, the SABIAN 16" Vault Artisan Crash has been remastered for deeper, warmer, more musically complex tones. Responses are faster, full and packed with tonal colour. The Artisan Crash, with its raw bell design and high-density hand hammering, is truly a masterpiece. The pinnacle of cymbal manufacturing, these fine instruments work superbly in any musical setting, whether Rock, Hip-Hop, R&B or Jazz.

Paiste 900 Series cymbals are crafted from 2002 Bronze in a sophisticated hybrid manufacturing process refined by Swiss hand hammering and lathing. Innovative design provides 900 Series cymbals with greater flexibility, resulting in a giving feel and outstanding playability at a modest price.

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 crashes feature a medium-thin weight and extensive hammering throughout. They open up easily and speak with a punchy warmth. The attack is quickly followed by a complex roar in the wash that tapers off for a fast decay. 

Beautiful, all-purpose ride with medium overtones.
Zildjian's classic sound is embodied by A Zildjian and immortalized in countless recordings by the greatest drummers of all time.

Recent adjustments were made to the curvature and weights of many current models to capture the sweet spot of the classic A sound, producing crashes, rides, and hats that reflect today's musical styles.

The K Sweet Collection extends the iconic K Family into a new direction of tonal colors that are dark, sweet, and responsive. K Sweet HiHats feature a thin top, extra heavy bottom and un-lathed bells, giving these cymbals a dark sound with a solid chick and fully body wash.
