Zildjian 19" K  Paper Thin Crash

The new K Paper Thin Crashes are a classic example of Zildjian’s greatest strengths – giving nods to the most resonating moments of its 400-year history, leading the charge in cymbal innovation, and rewarding the trust of drummers worldwide with cymbals that deliver and exceed the demands of players in the modern era.  As strong as they are thin, these cymbals offer an explosive dark crash with quick decay, and a buttery under-stick feel. A key feature is a reimagined three step hammering process which unlocks flexibility and sonic nuances that contribute to the unique signature of these crashes. The very thin profiles allow extra shimmer when crashed, providing a low end resonance not found anywhere else in the K Family.
