The 19" Zildjian A Ultra-Hammered China Cymbal is extremely bright, sharp and pangy. This is a sonic departure from your traditional, oriental sounding china, due in part to the extensive hammering, brilliant finish, and the inverted "volcano" shaped bell. This Ultra-Hammered China projects massive volume, and is not for the faint of heart. Check out the entire re-vamped line of Avedis cymbals at the Drum Center of Portsmouth.
