Frequently Asked Questions
It’s darker and more complex than most standard K Customs, with a more prominent trashy quality – less shimmering, more nuanced.
It’s a controlled trashiness; not a full-on trash stack. It adds character and complexity, but it’s still usable across a range of dynamics.
A lighter to medium weight stick with a nylon tip will help bring out the cymbal’s nuances without overpowering it.
