China & Effects Cymbals

Spectacular, small, dark, low-pitched China. Medium decay.
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.

Fast, explosive sound with immediate attack and smooth decay. Clean "China" sound with characteristic A Custom shimmer and texture.
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.

Crafted from pure SABIAN B20 Bronze using trickle-down technology from award-winning Evolution and X-Plosion cymbals, XSR delivers unpresendented sound and performance at a price designed to fit your cymbal budget. Use the SABIAN 18" XSR Chinese to play bright, but dirty ride patterns or fast, attacking accents. Its raw, nasty response is tonally tight and highly aggressive. XSR is not a budget series, but rather a line of smartly-priced cymbals that would not be out of place on any drum kit, on any stage.

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 SABIAN 7" Alu Bell features a dome-shape with narrow striking edge. Aluminium construction creates clear, musical bell-like response. It's also very lightweight, producing long, sustaining notes. Each Alu Bell is individually created using traditional sand-casting methods, so each Bell has a rough surface. While Alu Bells are comparatively thick and have an unfinished look, their tone is sweet and musical, with exceptional sustain.

Authentic "trashy" Chinese sound. Very fast, explosive response with rapid decay.
The Zildjian Oriential FX cymbals are a wonderful accent for adding a bright, trashy sound to your kit. They deliver an explosive response, but with a rapid decay.
