About this item

  • Strong initial attack
  • Crash opens up and responds very quickly
  • Adds instant splash of color to your sound
  • Thinner weight provides soft, buttery feel
  • Fast, smooth decay


True to their name, the Fast Crashes deliver a strong initial crash attack, then immediately drop out of the mix with a fast, smooth decay. These crashes add an instant splash of color to your sound, and feature a unique bell design. With every hit, the crash opens up right away, delivering a very responsive bright sound. The thinner weight provides a soft, "buttery" feel for plenty of playability.

This cymbal is a perfect all around splash, with a soft strike giving the perfect jazzy note and a slightly harder will give a great high note to a rock song. A very versatile addition to my kit. I love this cymbal.

I like that this cymbal can be played in smaller venues without sounding too loud. It has a good sound and it is in and out of the mix quickly.

Absolutely great sounding crash, with a bright tone and a very short sound.

Great cymbal, pricy, so only 4 stars.This is a great crash cymbal. Plays well tonally off of the 16 inch Zildjian crash as it should.I am just disappointed to note that a set of "decent" (middle grade, not the best) cymbals cost as much as a good shell pack.

Sound is pretty subjective, so I'll open with saying that these sound great - To me. Bright, fast and no 'clanging' or 'boinging'.I started drumming when I was 14, nearly 30 odd years ago, now I have stopped and my two sons both play. Back in the 80's the best cymbals could be £200+ and I used to buy them reckoning that they were the Gibson and Fender of cymbals. My sons used my cymbals, but some developed cracks and were replaced by these - I just simply can't get my head around the current prices, they are so so so reasonably priced for such good gear. 30 years ago they would have been about a tenner each at this rate.Honestly, you won't go wrong with Zildjian ever really, but for the money? Money, Money, and so on....LATE EDIT . I bought this cymbal for £155 when I wrote this review, I see the price has mysteriously tripled in May 2014 and I can't honestly say it is worth any more than I paid originally. Be careful!

Always loved Zildjians. I bought this to replace an old Sabian 14" that cracked (I've had a bad history with Sabian's cracking). It sounds great!
