Get to know them!

Zildjian L80 Low Volume cymbals are real cymbals that play at a reduced volume — up to 80% less volume, thanks to a unique perforated pattern. This means you can play them exactly how you play any other cymbal, using any stick, mallet, or brush in your stick bag. Unlike cymbals with foam mutes, the 18-inch Zildjian L80 china is vibrant and responsive and will make your precious practice hours translate into better performances. It's the obvious solution for quiet rehearsals and late-night practice at home. Get real cymbal feel and sound at a reduced volume with the 18-inch Zildjian L80 Low Volume china cymbal.

Get Gen16 volume reduction for less money

Zildjian hit a home run with their line of Gen16 electronic cymbals. Now you can get a similar low-volume, great-playing cymbal (minus the electronics but with added affordability) in the Zildjian 18-inch L80 china. Zildjian's L80 cymbals are crafted to behave like a real cymbal for satisfying practice sessions.

Make your practice hours count

Apartments, dorm rooms, and shared practice spaces are prime candidates for the 18-inch Zildjian L80 china. Paired with mesh heads or drum mutes, this cymbal dramatically reduces your sonic footprint wherever you jam.

Zildjian L80 Low Volume 18-inch China Cymbal Features:

  • Up to 80% quieter than traditional Zildjian cymbals
  • Sweetwater-recommended for apartments, dorm rooms, and shared practice spaces
  • Sounds and responds like a real acoustic cymbal
  • Can be played with any stick, mallet, or technique
  • Specially crafted for practice and low-volume rehearsals
  • Protects your hearing
  • Stacks on other cymbals for unique effects
  • Proudly made in the USA

Offer applies only to single-receipt qualifying purchases. Select manufacturers may require that only the manufacturer’s products qualify towards the minimum purchase amount needed to be eligible for promotional financing. Otherwise, an invoice that meets the minimum purchase amount and contains at least one qualifying manufacturer product is eligible for promotional financing. No interest will be charged on promo purchase balance, and equal monthly payments are required on promo purchase until it is paid in full. The payments equal the amount financed divided by the number of months in the promo period, rounded up to the next whole dollar. These payments may be higher than the payments that would be required if this purchase was a non-promo purchase. During the last month(s) of the promo period the required monthly payment may be reduced due to the prior months’ rounding. Regular account terms apply to non-promo purchases. New Accounts as of 07/31/2025: Purchase APR is 34.99%. Penalty APR is 39.99%. Min Interest Charge is $2. Existing cardholders: See your credit card agreement terms. Subject to credit approval.

Offer applies only to single-receipt qualifying purchases. No interest will be charged on the promo balance if you pay it off, in full, within the promo period. If you do not, interest will be charged on the promo balance from the purchase date. The required minimum monthly payments may or may not pay off the promo balance before the end of the promo period, depending on purchase amount, promo length and payment allocation. Regular account terms apply to non-promo purchases and, after promo period ends, to the promo balance. New Accounts as of 07/31/2025: Purchase APR is 34.99%. Penalty APR is 39.99%.

The estimated required monthly payment shown which excludes taxes and delivery equals the amount financed divided by the number of months in the promo period, rounded up to the next cent. During the last month(s) of the promo period the required monthly payment may be reduced due to this rounding. These payments apply only with the financing offer shown. If you make these payments by the due date each month, you should pay off this amount financed within the promo period, if it is the only balance you are paying off. If you have other balances on your account, this payment will be added to any other minimum monthly payments.
