China Cymbals

a very perfect cymbal to accents the space between the lines

Let me say, the Oriental Trash series Chinas are AWESOME, in particular the perfect dimension cymbal that I've tested are for me: the 12", 16" and this 20". The Oriental China Trash 12" is another OUTSTANDING cymbal... I was searching for a cymbal that could be just an effect and this China is a very perfect cymbal to accents the space between the lines! Beautiful cymbal!

Hi-hat Cymbals

Zildjian 14'' K Hi Hats

Avg price: $562.10

My cymbal voice

This K series hi hat 14" is wonderful! It was my first purchase, I was searching to give to my drumset a Real voice. That's all! The sound of this cymbal is totally insane. So clear, dark and with a lot of volume and dynamics! Must Have!

Splash Cymbals

Zildjian 10" A Custom Splash

Avg price: $180.19

The perfect sounding Splash!

This cymbal is the perfect one to use in a lot of contexts. It sounds so clear, cut through every other instrument in a live situation. I Love it!!

Splash Cymbals

Dark clear splash

This splash by Zildjian is absolutely gorgeous!!! Its tone is really clear and dark at the same time. It's perfect in combo with the Splash K custom dark 8". They have the two perfect pitch, clear and dark. You can ride on them and of course accents. Love them!

Effects Cymbals

Zildjian 14" Trashformer

Great!

I have the ZXT trashformer 14", stack with the Zildjian China Oriental Trash 18

Effects Cymbals

Zildjian 14" A Custom EFX

Avg price: $280.60

Effect means EFX

Amazing cymbal, stand alone it's very trash and sounds like a china. But I use it stacked with my Splash Avedis Vintage 10".

Crash Cymbals

My baby K hybrid!

It's my BEST cymbal. The sound is so F..ing good. So rich, a lot of volume, from the tiny one to a very full, fat, big sound. I really adore.

Splash Cymbals

Zildjian 12" A Splash

Avg price: $165.30

Crash Cymbals

My left CRASH is the BE(a)ST

AWESOME cymbal! It have a dark sound, a lot of sound and atmospheres with fast decay. I LOVE IT!

China Cymbals

Powerfull China! Gavin Harrison approves!

This cymbal is a very powerful one. A lot of volume, power, with a very trash sound, with oriental atmospheres. The tone is very wide. From the tiny one to the fat sound. Perfect cymbal that I use stand alone, but you can also stack with another cymbal, maybe a crash one cheaper.

China Cymbals

THE Definitive China, big dimension with a lot of expression.

As I said in the main description, THIS cymbal is the definitive China. Let me say, the Oriental Trash series Chinas are AWESOME, in particular the perfect dimension cymbal that I've tested are for me: the 12", 16" and this 20". The Oriental China Trash 20" is a OUTSTANDING cymbal... I was searching for a cymbal that could be an effect, a riding one... This is a China of course, BUT, you can ride with, and you can also use it as a perfect effect to make soft accents or powerful if you want power and crash to cut through the wall of sound in a live context. Beautiful cymbal!

Ride Cymbals

A Ride of Dreams!

This Ride is symply AMAZING. The first time I played it sounded so great... I was chilling!! Preatty versatile ride, but for its particular sound, dark and custom, it's perfect for me to have it on my left side with a chain onto it, to emulate the effect of rivets. Preatty jazzy. So, a definit ride for Jazz, Blues and everything like this sound!

Preferred Settings + Usage:

My Favourite Jazz Cymbal Set From left to right

Zildjian K custom dark 13'' hi hats Zildjian K custom dark 20'' ride (with a little chain that stands for the rivets) Zildjian A custom 16'' crash - on top of this - Zildjian K series 10" splash Zildjian K series 20'' ride

Ride Cymbals

My first AWESOME ride cymbal, vintage Logo of an Italian cymbal beauty!

This is my first Ride cymbal. Awesome for many many genres: Rock, blues, funk, metal, country, pop. Great ping and wonderful bell that cut through. Italian pride of the times gone by.
