    Zildjian Kerope

    Zildjian L80 Low Volume

    Cymbal · United States

    The L80 cymbals are drilled through with hundreds of holes, cutting volume by roughly eighty percent while keeping enough feel and rebound to practise on. They made quiet practice on a real kit possible.

  • Model

    Zildjian K Zildjian

    Cymbal · United States

    The K Zildjian series carries forward the dark, warm, complex sound of the original K cymbals developed in 19th-century Turkey. Cast from Zildjian's B20 bronze and traditionally finished, K cymbals are a jazz mainstay and are recognizable by their vented 'K' stamp, spanning rides, crashes, hi-hats and effects.

  • Model

    Zildjian A Symphonic

  • Model

    Zildjian K Sweet

    Cymbal · United States

    K Sweet extends the K family toward larger diameters at thin weights — 21" and 23" rides, 17" and 19" crashes — for drummers who want wash without volume.

  • Model

    Zildjian FX Oriental China Trash

    Cymbal · United States

    The Oriental China Trash is a fast, bright, unapologetically harsh china that became a fixture in metal and in electronic-influenced drumming.

  • Model

    Zildjian A Avedis

    Cymbal · United States

    A Avedis reproduces the thin, warm, quick A cymbals of the 1950s rather than the brighter modern A, with a rough finish and unlathed bell.
