Zildjian GEN16 Buffed Bronze 16-inch china cymbal
Product no: 9000-0009-1501
Bax Music Warranty:
This product comes with a 3-year warranty.
General
This 16-inch china cymbal comes from the advanced GEN16 line, named for the 16th generation of Zildjians who will inherit the family business. GEN16 cymbals are 'low-volume' cymbals, and are characterised by their natural response, though they have a much rougher sound than conventional cymbals. This 16-inch china will add that trashy element to your kit, and it will look nice too, thanks to the beautiful Buffed Bronze finish. It's an excellent choice for electro-acoustic hybrid kits, and works great in combination with other GEN16 cymbals.
