Thin Finger Cymbals emit a piercing, lower-pitched ring that projects audibly in large orchestras. These are made in Zildjian's cast bronze alloy, and also come in a thicker, higher-pitch option.

My dad loved em. The very fact of them being Zildjian was enough to get him very excited. very good quality... the stretchy handles arent that optimal but it works with a lil' brain power.

Zildjian Finger Cymbal sound is great.I would have given them a five star except for the poor quality elastic bands that do not stay in place when threaded through the holes.

The sound is pretty good, but having only one hole was a challenge. Turns out I needed to use pins to keep the rubber band in place. Not ideal solution considering the price of the instrument. Also, I thought I was buying 2 pairs but it’s o ly a pair.

These guys fulfill their purpose of making noise in a percussion section.

The finger cymbals are of high quality and sound. They came with two pieces of elastic strap and NO directions of how to assemble the cymbals so you could use them. I looked on YouTube for videos and found none. The issue is that it is difficult to use the straps by tying knots on the underside of the cymbals, without the straps falling through the hole in the cymbals. I ultimately gave up on the elastic straps and used something my wife had on a piece of old costume jewelry, which had a little ball which I could attach to a piece of leather and which was slightly larger than the hole in the cymbals. Now it works great!

These finger cymbals worked great for our large ensemble. Lighter, cheaper cymbals just didn't have the right sound, and didn't sound loud enough to be heard. These finger cymbals sounded clearly with a beautiful tone and came through the large ensemble to be heard well. Glad I bought these!

These finger cymbals are great. If you're looking for something to actually use for music and not just as a prop for a belly dancing costume, this is probably what you're looking for. The sound is clear and resonant, and the 'thin' versions I got are articulate and have a long sustain. They are slightly out of tune with each other which gives them a nice rich warble (it's a feature), however you can always play a single cymbal with a brass mallet if you'd rather not have those tuning beats.The only cause for slight concern was that I could find no obvious branding on either cymbal. Zildjan products normally have the name written or stamped somewhere, but both cymbals were free of any markings. The soft bag they came in was also unbranded, though there was a "zildjan" sticker on the bag with the font I'm used to seeing as well as a "Zilco" sticker on the bag in a somewhat generic sans-serif font. I'm not a finger cymbal expert and it's possible that marking them in any way would have affected their sound since they're so small (and the surface is heavily textured so it may not take ink very well). I mostly assume these are legit, but I'd be lying if I said a tiny part of me wonders if this is a counterfeit. They sound great so I it's not likely they're bootlegs (and if they are, they're good enough to not really matter anyway).The cymbals do not come with any sort of handle or string attached. There are small pieces of elastic which you may tie through the holes of the cymbals to create little handles if you like. I was a little put off by that at first, but I realized that it made it easier to customize how long you'd like the loops to be or if you'd like to use a different material altogether. I basically tied the elastic on like you would a piece of rope for an orchestral crash cymbal. I'm not a finger cymbal expert and part of me was worried the knotted elastic sitting on the bottom of the cymbal would mute some of the sound, but it has not been an issue. I could probably trim off some of the excess but I've yet to be bothered by it and I like having the option to elongate it later if I need, so I'm leaving it for now.

The elastics don't hold really good and aren't really tied to the cymbals so could be removed or dropped easily. Badly done. Not impressed.

I am a bit disappointed. I am not a finger cymbal expert, but was looking for a pair with good resonance. These have good resonance, but 2 different pitches. I have a pair that are off by a 1/2 step of each other. Is this normal? Wouldn't you want the same pitch? I paid more money because I thought I was getting the best, and I'm thinking the pitch should match. If anyone knows differently, pls advise. I don't think I can use these now.
