I have a 17" Z Custom medium crash and was looking for a smaller, brighter sounding crash as an addition for my set, I was hoping to get another Z Custom, but figured out that they discontinued them. So i ended up researching it and found that the Z3's are the upgrade of the Z Customs. So I bought the 16". This crash is very bright sounding, and was just what i was looking for. It has a good, fast attack with short decay. I would definitely recommend the Z3 Medium Crash to any metal or rock drummer.
I bought the 17 and 19 inch crashes to replace my a customs for a darker more rock sound. Thats exactly what i got and i was very pleased. Until about 4 months into playing my 19" crash it got a huge radial crack in it. They sound great don't get me wrong. But being thicker cymbals they have a more tendency to break if you're a heavy hitter.
this cymbal cuts through anything. it is a powerhouse of volume. i bought the 19 inch one and i have no regrets at all. it has a great response to crescendos and a great sustain. it does take a little getting used to since its so powerful. i love how durable it is since im an extremely hard hitter. ive had it for months using it in both pit percussion and my own personal set. it sounds amazing and really fits in with hardcore/metalcore music. im going to get more z3 cymbals because of this one
