Incredible crash!!!

These are truly exceptional crashes! I've been playing for close to 10 years now and I've never owned or played on crashes quite as nice as these. I use an 18" for my main crash, and a 17" and 16" for other crashes; all A custom fast crashes. The craftsmanship is unmatched, the sound is smooth, yet full and brightly colorful, and the decay is perfect. In my opinion, these are the best crashes on the market. Better even than the K custom from Zildjian. If you're looking for quality, playability, and perfect tone from a crash, these are the crashes for you!

this cymbal is terrible

I have had this cymbal for a few weeks and to be honest with you this A Custom fast crash has the worse sustain ever. The swish to this cymbal is the worse ever made by Zildjian and they crack to easlier cause they are too thin.

    Zildjian's finest work in the A series of cymbals, and the best sounding short sustain crash cymbal. Very good crashability, and surprisingly good to ride on for a crash cymbal as well. Very solid cymbal, would recommend to anyone looking to get into high quality breakables.

  • I love the sound these Zildjian A Fast Crash Cymbals make

    I play in our church program along with many other drummers and they as well love the sound they make compared to the other cymbals.

    I had a 14" that I replaced with this cymbal and it's made all the difference in live sound and recording. Bright, but warm.

  • Cymbal is excellent. Scratch/Condition better than I feared.

    As a level 3 scratch and dent, I am very pleased. Some discoloration up close. but that has zero effect on tone. No scratches or dents. Basically got an "almost new" cymbal at 70% of the retail price.

  • Yes I would buy this product again.

    As I stated before, it was for my grandson. He was so excited. Best blessing of all it arrived just in time. Couldn't ask for anything more precious just to be able to perform with the best.
