Nick’s Notes
The updated Z Custom series does an excellent job balancing raw projection with improved musicality compared to the original generation. This 16" model responds quickly and projects extremely well without feeling stiff or lifeless under the stick.
The classic star-pattern hammering gives these cymbals a very distinctive stage appearance under lighting.
Note on Handcrafted K and Z-Series Cymbals
Zildjian K and Z-series cymbals are individually hand-hammered and tonally shaped at the factory. Natural hammer marks, tonal shaping impressions, finish variation, and minor handling marks are normal characteristics of the series and are not considered defects.
