General

The GEN16 Buffed Bronze splash is 12 inches in diameter and was designed in the Zildjian sound Lab where they developed the first nickel-plated GEN16. Thanks to their choice of bronze material and a polished finish, this splash has a warmer sound than the nickel-plated version. Luckily it has kept the same warm look, so it won't be out of place in the average hybrid drum kit. A cable and pickup can be added for quickly connecting to modules. The name GEN16 refers to the grandchildren of the current Zildjian board, the 16th generation of Zildjians who we hoop will continue the Zildjian legacy in the future!
