Zildjian S Series THIN 18" Crash

I have to start by saying I am not a fan of 18" crash cymbals, at all. However, I knew it would sound differently under the studio mics, so after banging around on a few at a local store and then consulting with my sales engineer [ SHOUT OUT to Sean Geyer ], I purchased the 18" thin.

For the price point, I was really surprised at the quality of sound and the clean wash from a build up roll on this cymbal. I have this cymbal sitting high in the center, a 14" Custom Series Paiste Fast Crash sitting to the left, and a 16" Zildjian A Avedis Fast Crash to the right. I was blown away at how well this cymbal mixes in. You have a 5 star product when you sit perfectly with the B20 bronze boys.

Ask any drummer at Sweetwater, and chances are, we'll tell you that Zildjian represents the gold - or rather bronze - standard in cymbal making. Seriously, Avedis Zildjian may have been trying to make gold, but he did even better when he formulated what's arguably the best cymbal material on the planet. We've played virtually every type of Zildjian cymbal out there, and you won't find anyone at Sweetwater who wouldn't happily recommend their instruments to you, plus their sticks and other accessories are also pretty sweet. Whether you're grabbing your first S or ZBT pack or have saved up for the A or K series cymbals you've always wanted, Sweetwater is your source for all things Zildjian.
