12" Zildjian A Custom - Brilliant Finish

Product Description

The Zildjian A Custom 12" Splash delivers a fast, shimmering crash sound that cuts through the band without taking over. Part of the A Custom series, it's a great choice for players who want short, clear accents in modern rock and pop settings.

The A Custom series is based on the classic A cymbals but is made using a new hammering method that leaves the cymbals thinner. The series was developed together with Vinnie Colaiuta (Sting, Frank Zappa, Chick Corea), with a sound tailored for modern rock and pop contexts.

Sound Character

The sound is often described as "sweet" – not too dark and not too bright. It cuts through nicely in a band mix without overpowering the rest of the kit, making it easy to place without it sticking out too much.

Construction

All A Custom cymbals are supplied in a brilliant finish, giving them their characteristic bright look alongside the polished tone.

Who It's For

A good choice if you want a splash that's clearly audible without ever sounding shrill or overbearing, for example as a fill accent in pop or lighter rock playing.
