A punchy, cutting splash that really opens up and breathes. The raw bell design plus AAX hammering and lathing results in a biting splash with plenty of substance and depth.

A fiery combination of tonal heat and raw aggression, the HHX Chinese brings biting attack with a furiously fast and funky feel.

A unique inverted Chinese design makes this model easier to play when mounted flat. Traditional hand hammering is used, followed by additional HHX hammering to flatten out the playing surface next to the bell.

We were asked to make a China cymbal that was over the top loud and trashy. With its exaggerated high profile, raw bell and 18 rows of volume/trash-enhancing holes, the 19″ AA Holy China may very well be one of the loudest cymbals we’ve ever made!

With a conical cup, hammered, flanged edge and brilliant finish, this 7" bell speaks immediately with a unique blend of overtones.

The thinnest FX bell in the Zildjian family, the Break Bell speaks quickly, with a uniquely playable feel.
