Zildjian K Custom 17" Dark Crash

The K Custom Dark Crash is a cymbal with a deep, dark tone and a full sound. A special over-hammering technique creates a fast, clear attack, after which the sound decays rapidly. This gives the cymbal a lively and controlled character. Thanks to its thin and lightweight design, the cymbal responds quickly and smoothly, while still producing powerful, full-bodied crashes. The tone remains rich and layered, with enough definition to be clearly audible within the mix. As a result, the cymbal offers great expression, character, and nuance, making it ideal for dynamic and refined playing.
