DescriptionThe Zildjian 18" K Custom Special Dry Crash is a raw, earthy, and highly specialized cymbal remastered for modern styles. It offers a dark, funky sound with an extra-fast attack and rapid decay. It is widely favored by drummers seeking an explosive accent that won't overpower the mix.
Product Features
- Sound Profile: Dry, dark, and trashy with a funky, "dirty" tone. It provides an explosive crash that quickly gets out of the way.
- Attack & Decay: Features a very fast, responsive attack and a short, controlled sustain that dies out rapidly.
- Weight: Extra-thin, making it highly sensitive to even light strikes while allowing the cymbal to open up quickly.
- Finish: Features a visually striking hybrid design. The top is left raw and un-lathed to control overtones and add dirt to the sound, while the bottom is fully lathed.
- Alloy & Craftsmanship: Crafted from Zildjian's proprietary 80/20 bronze alloy (80% copper, 20% tin). It undergoes a rigorous hand-chased, 3-step hammering process to give it its unique, moody character.
- Musical Application: Highly versatile despite its dry nature. It excels in modern genres like pop, R&B, hip-hop, jazz, and fusion. It is also highly regarded for live worship setups because its raw finish minimizes excess wash in bright, echoey spaces.
