About This Listing


A Dry But Articulate And Open Tone Color - The Zildjian 21" K Custom Organic Ride Cymbal

The cymbal features a wire-brushed finish top for clean stick articulation, a crystal clear bell that cuts through the mix and an unlathed buffed bottom for crashability without washing out. Medium-thin in weight, it's heavy enough for playability as a ride cymbal, and light enough to open up - creating a lush crash sound.

Designed with today’s diverse music scene in mind, K Custom is both powerful and vibrant, yet dark and gentle. Drawing from the spirit of the legendary K Zildjian range, K Custom cymbals are dark, rich and dry and enable today's drummers to utilize complex K sounds in a more modern musical environment.  They feature traditional K hammering, plus a variety of additional modern hammering techniques that produce unique sonic capabilities.   Recommended for modern jazz, studio, country and medium rock.  K Customs are designed with today's diverse music scene in mind.
