Zildjian's Description: <<< - >>>
Review: "Unlike the ride, crash and hi-hats, the Trash crash, Trash china and FX hi-hat top each feature several circular cut-outs across the bow, designed to sharpen the attack and dry out the sound even further.

The Trash crash uses a mixture of large and small holes running parallel to each other from bell to edge; arranged in sets of three, four or five. The Trash china uses the same configuration, which leaves both cymbals with almost as much air as actual metal. Noticeably more so, in fact, than Zildjian’s similar A Custom or K EFX cymbals. Interestingly, the Trash china is Zildjian’s first Chinese-style cymbal with holes in it."

Review: "The trash crashes are angry and loud. The formula is the same as the crashes, but those holes give even more rawness and a super fast decay. The bigger ones are lower in pitch, but have the same qualities."
