Sound that's Always in Style. Legend. Legacy. The innovative cymbal work of Art Blakey, Elvin Jones, Tony Williams or any one of a sweeping collection of the greatest drummers in history. They’ve all been fueled by K Zildjian cymbals. The deep, dry and shimmering sounds developed by Kerope Zildjian in 19th Century Turkey continue to inspire drummers today.

16" K EFX
Darker version of the A Custom EFX. Produces a quick, dry, dark and trashy sound used for accenting and punctuating. Unique laser generated "cut outs" aid in the sudden explosiveness and quick decay. Traditional K finish and thin weight.
Dream Cymbals - Dream Bliss Series 24" Small Bell Flat Ride
24" BLISS Small Bell Flat Ride
The low profile and small half cup combined with a slightly thicker cymbal have created the ultimate BLISS ride.
The stick sound is very clear, a little soft in feel but still responsive. The bell, though a small target is clear and pitched, never brash. The most outstanding feature is the simmering huge pot of broth that washes under that clear but complex stick sound when riding.
The tones are complex but more controlled than the crash ride 22, but support the ride pattern with a warm intensity that can leap out with thunder when coaxed. The overtones are a subtle mix that won’t get in the way of the rest of the band but also wont let the bottom fall out of the time. The time is supported on a rolling wave of surf, with a roar in the distance.
Paiste Cymbals - Paiste 2002 Alex Van Halen 24" Big Ride - New For 2010
The 2002 Big Ride is based on the design parameters and character of the Giant Beat series. The finish is vintage 2002 style. The cymbal features a full, silky, powerful, deep sound character, and a sweet, glassy ping over a big, dark and misty wash, making it a versatile Ride cymbal with great crash-ability, a perfect addition to Alex Van Halen’s very own big signature cymbal sound.
As a tribute to Alex's collaborative effort in the creation of this unique cymbal, the label Reverend Al's Big Ride and a modified rendition of the principal exterminator artwork for Van Halen's 1984 tour have been placed on the cymbal.
2002 cymbals are entirely made by hand in Switzerland using traditional methods that have remained unchanged in over half a century
