Zildjian A Custom 17" Fast Crash – Brilliant Finish
Regular Price: $374.95
SKU: A20533 — Unplayed
Product Description
Bright, airy and ultra-responsive, the Zildjian A Custom 17" Fast Crash is designed to explode with shimmering color and vanish just as quickly. Slightly thinner than the standard A Custom crash, it features a brilliant finish, lower profile, and fine tonal grooves that give it a smooth, glassy tonality. Ideal for players who want articulate accents that stay clean and never linger.

Nick’s Notes
The 17" Fast Crash is one of the most versatile options in the A Custom lineup if you need quick, cutting accents with no lingering overtones. It’s especially useful for studio drummers who need a crash that stays tight and defined in the mix. If you want glassy shimmer without wash, this cymbal nails it.

Note on Brilliant-Finish Cymbals
Brilliant-finish cymbals are polished and buffed to achieve their reflective appearance. As a result, fingerprints, light handling marks, polishing swirls, finish variation, and minor factory handling evidence may be visible under direct lighting or close inspection. These cosmetic characteristics are common on brilliant-finish cymbals and do not affect performance, structural integrity, or sound quality.
