Zildjian K Paper Thin 18" Crash Cymbal

Zildjian has a fantastic back catalogue of cymbals to cherry-pick from and know exactly the right time for one of their classic models to make a comeback. Thanks to customer feedback and Zildjian’s nose for the next musical trends, Paper Thin Crash Cymbals are back in vogue.

The new Zildjian K Paper Thin Crash Cymbal range is a great example of how to update a classic for a modern audience. The paper thin weight range first appeared in the 1950’s and offered players a fresh new sound - bright and super-shimmery, but still rich in low-end resonance and packed full of sonic depth. 

This Zildjian K Paper Thin 18" Crash Cymbal offers all of those qualities and more. Enhanced by modern manufacturing techniques, this cymbal manages to blend the old with the new, utilising a three-step hammering process to blend Paper Thin qualities with the sonic characteristics required by the modern drummer.
