Zildjian 17" K China
K Zildjian Chinas are low-pitched china cymbals that let loose with spectacular dark sound effects. The smallest option and unique in size, the 14" K Mini China has a quick attack with distinct tone colors and is perfect for landing short, sharp accents. It sustains with a medium decay. The larger 17" and 19" K Chinas emit a more exotic, mellow darker tone. The lower china sound lands more heavily with more body. These chinas are great for inserting dark special effects, and provide a booming sound for sweeping accents.
Zildjian K Series
K Zildjian cymbals are known for their dark, warm sounds that harken back to the original K cymbals developed by Zildjian in 19th Century Turkey. Instantly recognizable by their "vented K" logo, K cymbals capture the aura of the original K's but with far greater consistency, making them the choice of drummers from genres as diverse as Jazz, Country, and Rock.
