Upgrade your drum kit with the explosive Zildjian Z3 crash. This cymbal's oversized bell and symmetrical hammer dents deliver enhanced projection.

Powerfully explosive. Get that loud crash you've always dreamed of with the Z3 Medium Crash Cymbal.

Hard hitting cymbals as you know them have just changed. Now introducing the new Zildjian Z3 line with the ultimate mix of Power, Projection and Playability for your Rock.

Power - Made from the formable Zildjian 80% copper/ 20% tin cast bronze alloy, these cymbals explode thanks to oversized bells and large sizes.

Projection - Ear splitting presence comes from symmetrical hammering and advanced lathing methods for enhanced projection.

Playability - Optimum profiles and thicknesses provide a high level of flex that keeps the cymbal from feeling like you are hitting a manhole cover. Their brilliant finish provides all the eye candy you are looking for.

Ground shaking Rock cymbals are nothing new to Zildjian. In 1985, Zildjian led the way with the legendary Z line. By 1993, Z Custom was found on the kits of Rock drummers around the world. Now comes the third phase of the Z legacy with the most musical Rock cymbals ever crafted, Z3. Over 25 hot new models destined to rock your world.

Sound
This cymbal(18") was explosive! loud, bright and to "Tinny" for my taste nice & thick with prolonged overtones(too long for me). I think it wouldn't break if you dropped it off a roof, probably stick in the cement! it's heavy!! Don't get me wrong I love Zildjians had ZXT's & ZHT'S for years but got in a band and needed to upgrade. I played a Z3 ride (20") hihats(14") and this crash(18") and I didn't care for any of them.(all to bright) Played A Customs, Sabians,& Meinl, Ended up buying K Customs 2 hybrid crashes(16",17") and a K Dark Crash(18") still looking for a ride & hihats. summed up don't listen to sound bites go play em!! that's how you know for sure
