Bottom Hat That Brings the Heat!

Liveliness is the name of the game when it comes to Zildjian’s Z Custom hi-hat lineup, and this bottom cymbal has it written all over! Laden with brightness, clarity, and presence, this cymbal creates a powerfully energetic and forward tone that’s designed to cut through live mixes with confidence and put every pattern in the spotlight. Rooted in Zildjian’s deluxe B20 bronze alloy formula, the Z Custom hi-hat bottom cymbal features a lush and full-bodied foundation that not only works wonders for volume, but also creates an open wash tone that simply can’t be ignored. Brilliantly finished and stamped with those legendary stars, this momentous cymbal is set to stun in sight and sound while up onstage at the hands of drummers of the heaviest music variety.

The Z Custom returns

Launching in 1994, Zildjian’s relatively short-lived Z Custom series of cymbals blends revolutionary engineering, powerful sonics, and knockout aesthetics into one unmatchable design. Now resurrected here at Sweetwater, these Z Custom models come finely crafted once more for an eruption of bright and hard-cutting musical tone, with rugged performance longevity to outlast even the most demanding percussion careers. Perfectly suiting metal, rock, punk, and similar heavier realms, the Z Custom series instills a bold authority within every mix it joins, from small gigs that make a lot of noise to full-blown festival stages. Brilliantly finished and emblazoned with that familiar star pattern, Zildjian’s stunning made-in-the-USA Z Custom series of cymbals awaits with powerful poise to skyrocket your drumming to new heights.

Zildjian Z Custom Hi-hat Bottom Cymbal Features:

  • A resurrection of Zildjian's original Z Custom series of cymbals, complete with brilliant finish and iconic star pattern
  • Tone that is brilliant and clear, with plenty of volume for live performances
  • Possesses a full-bodied open wash
  • Perfect for super-hard-hitting drumming styles
  • Ideal for heavier genres like metal, rock, hard rock, punk, and more
  • B20 bronze alloy formula establishes a highly musical foundation
  • Carefully crafted in the USA

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 Planet Z pack or have saved up for the A or K series cymbals you've always wanted, Sweetwater is your source for all things Zildjian.
