Zildjian I Series 18" China Cymbal - Traditional Finish

Zildjian’s latest entry-level offering - the I Series -  is an awesome range of exciting cymbals that offers drummers a brand new Zildjian flavour to add to their sonic palettes - without costing a bomb. The Zildjian I Series 18" China Cymbal is one of the more esoteric cymbals in the range designed to pepper your sound with some truly unique character.

This great China offers an explosive, rapid blast of sparkling energy that will emphasize your strikes and broaden the width of your expressive range. Its lightweight, thin-profile design allows it a punchy, high-impact attack and a rapid decay.

Taking its series initial from the Turkish word “ilham”, you’ll not be surprised to hear that this word translates into English as “inspiration”. The I Series provides a set of qualities that are truly inspiring for any up and coming player and will help you to push your performances to great new heights. 

Crafted and shaped from B8 bronze alloy, this China features a fully-lathed playing surface pitted with small hammered peens. This creates a vivid complexity and a sophisticated, crystalline attack that will really emphasize your nuances.
