The Zildjian I Series Essentials Plus Cymbal Pack provides drummers with a trio of expressive cymbals to explore their creativity. Made from Zildjian's cutting yet musical B8 bronze, these cymbals feature modern weights and sizes, as well as hammering and lathing that shape their tone. Named after the Turkish word for "inspiration," the I Series aims to motivate percussionists to find their unique voice. This essentials pack comes with 13" hi-hats, a 14" crash and an 18" crash/ride to deliver a balanced blend of sounds perfect for any style. The Zildjian I Series Essentials Plus Cymbal Pack empowers drummers to broaden their sonic palette.

13" Hi-Hats Provide a Solid Foundation

The included 13" hi-hat cymbals establish a fundamental sound for any drum kit. Their medium-thin weight and responsive design make them ideal for a range of musical genres from rock to jazz. Precision hammering helps shape their tone, allowing drummers to achieve a variety of sounds from tight "chicks" to open washes of shimmering overtones.

14" Crash Cuts Through the Mix

A 14" crash cymbal adds accent and punctuation to your playing. Its cutting yet musical voice is perfect for aggressive styles of music, providing an explosive burst of sound. When used as an auxiliary crash, it diversifies your setup and expands your timbral options. With a quick crash from this cymbal, you can make an immediate impact.

18" Crash/Ride Offers Versatility

The 18" crash/ride cymbal serves double duty in a drum set up. It provides a full, crashing sound when struck forcefully, while also delivering a wash of sustain and complex overtones in a ride pattern. Its medium weight and traditional shape endow it with a versatility that works for all musical applications. Use it as a primary ride, a big crash or stack it on other cymbals for a trashy, industrial effect.
