Frequently Asked Questions
The Zultan offers a similar dry, earthy character, but generally possesses a slightly warmer, more vintage tone compared to the brighter, more modern sounds of those competitors.
Yes, the unlathed finish will naturally tarnish over time; regular cleaning with a cymbal cleaner will help maintain its appearance, but some patina is part of the charm.
It's dry in the sense of reduced overtones, not a lack of sustain; it still has plenty of sustain and musicality, just a more focused, controlled response.
