Zildjian A custom 17-inch Medium Crash

General

This 17-inch Medium Crash is an ideal cymbal for drummers who like to get loud. It has a large dynamic range, and it produces a bright, well-defined sound, whether you strike it gently or really lay into it. The bow is quite thick and the bell is relatively large, compared to that of other A Customs cymbals. With its mid to high pitch, this is certainly not a dark, low-sounding cymbal.

Zildjian A Custom series

The Zildjian A Custom series of cymbals is known for its quick response and its bright sound. A Custom cymbals range from thin to medium weight and feature a brilliant finish. They are manufactured using rotary hammering techniques. While most A Custom models have a relatively small bell, there are a number of models that stand out by bucking that trend. Zildjian A Custom cymbals are suited for various musical styles, making them very popular with all-round drummers.

Cast Bronze

The Zildjian A Custom cymbals are cast from a special bronze alloy, the exact composition of which has been a Zildjian family secret for over 390 years. Although the process of further shaping and fine-tuning the cymbals has been modernised throughout the years, to this day, the craftsmen at Zildjian ensure that these cymbals are still valued highly in the drumming community. They're some of the best cymbals in the world!
