When it comes to buying a china, hearing is definitely believing. Once you give a listen to what these legendary chinas have to offer, you’ll want one in your cymbal lineup—the sooner, the better! Both the 17” and 19” sizes get you where you want to be creatively and musically with a dark, exotic and mellow sound that lays the foundation for dynamic special effects. The wide flat edge design and small bell adds to its versatility and playability, while the loud volume projects well in smaller and larger venues. To create more impact and less distraction, the chinas ring for just a short time after being struck.

K Custom cymbals are made from the Zildjian family’s exclusive cast bronze alloy. It’s a formula so secretive, only a select few Zildjian family members even know its exact components. The unlathed top and bottom combine with elaborate random hammering to create 80% copper/20% tin cymbals that are ideal for jazz settings, yet remain versatile enough to ride the more exuberant rhythms of pop, rock and alternative music as well.
