Drawing from the spirit of the legendary K Zildjian range, K Custom cymbals are dark, rich and dry and enable today’s drummers to utilize complex K sounds in a more modern musical environment. They feature traditional K hammering, plus a variety of additional modern hammering techniques that produce unique sonic capabilities. Recommended for modern jazz, studio, country and medium rock.
