Frequently Asked Questions
The Heritage series is noticeably darker and more controlled, lacking the intense projection and brilliance of their higher-end offerings, which are geared towards louder, more contemporary playing.
While Zultan maintains quality control, traditional hammering inherently introduces slight variations in each cymbal’s sonic signature, making each one subtly unique.
Regular cleaning with a cymbal cleaner and occasional waxing will help preserve the finish and prevent excessive tarnishing; it's part of the charm of a bronze cymbal.
