Key Features
One of a kind prototype. One of a kind sound. This SoundLab K Custom crash has a bone-dry tone. Because the tone is so dry, there are few overtones, giving it clear and distinctive stick definition. This makes it perfect for subtle articulation like riding, as well as crashing. On the topic of crashing, the sound opens up immediately, with a fierce bite that decays quickly. That's instant impact for your accents, chops and chaotic grooves. It's fair to say it features more projection and cut than your typical dark crash, too. Use it for funk, jazz - however you want. With this cymbal, you claim your own signature sound.
No more of these exclusive prototypes are being made. This is the only one. So grab your own piece of Zildjian history today!

SoundLab cymbals are one of a kind prototypes that have not entered commercial production. This particular cymbal was handmade by master cymbal smith Paul Francis using age-old techniques, remastered to suit the modern drummer. K Custom Special Dry cymbals feature Zildjian’s innovative three-step hammering process, creating a distinctive shape and unique sound. This provides the cymbals with a fast attack that shuts down rapidly for quick grooves, funky accents and choppy fills. Each cymbal is finished off with a fully lathed bottom and a raw natural top, creating a dark, dirty appearance that’s unique to each cymbal and adds a personal aesthetic to each drum kit.
