Frequently Asked Questions

The bell on this ride is relatively responsive, but lacks the extended sustain found on higher-end Zildjian models like the A series.
Like all bronze cymbals, they can crack with improper handling or excessive force, but the Z Custom’s construction is robust and less susceptible than some thinner models.
While powerful live, the bright and aggressive sound might require significant EQing in a studio setting to tame the high frequencies and avoid a harsh recording.
