The original Ziljian series has shaped musical history, from Beethoven to the Beatles. With more weights and sizes than any other series, these cymbals excel in any musical setting. The world's most popular and versatile cymbal.

Zidjian cast bronze cymbals are made from raw metal in Ziljian's own foundry through a complex sequence of heating, rolling, hammering and lathing. These cymbals are impervious to warping and have greater projection, clarity and durability than any others in the world.

All Zildjian cymbals come with the traditional finish. Some are available in a brilliant finish as well, call 1-888-590-9700 and ask for details.
