ZILDJIAN 20" K Zildjian Paper Thin Crash | K 20" Paper Thin Crash Cymbal

As thin as Zildjian dares to go — and it sounds like it.

The 20" K Paper Thin Crash responds to the gentlest touch with a dark, airy, instantly-blooming wash and a whispering decay. At 20 inches it doubles superbly as a light crash-ride for low-volume gigs. For studio work, jazz and dynamic live playing, few crashes feel this expressive under the stick.

About Zildjian

Zildjian's story stretches from the court of the Ottoman Empire to the modern touring stage: founded in Constantinople in 1623, the family firm has been making cymbals for 400 years and counting. Generations of drummers — from big-band legends to metal and hip-hop players — have built their sound on Zildjian bronze, and every cymbal is still crafted in Norwell, Massachusetts.
