General

Add an expressive, sparkling effect to your drum or percussion setup with this 10-inch Splash from Zildjian's S Family series. This cymbal has a short sustain, a high pitch, and an average volume range. Because of its small diameter, it's less suitable for heavy rock styles like metal and punk, but just perfect for pop, fusion, and other light genres.

Zildjian S Family

Zildjian S Family cymbals are made of B12 alloy, which consists of 88% copper and 12% tin. In order to achieve a new and modern sound from an age-old material, developers in the Zildjian sound lab experimented with different techniques over the course of two whole years! During that time, they created and tested various designs in the lab as well as in the field, so to speak. The S Family series adds a unique, bright sound to the Zildjian assortment.

Sound characteristics of the S Family series

For starters, the cymbals have a brilliant finish. They have an overwhelmingly clear and expressive sound, and an average volume level range. If we compare the cymbals from the K Custom series, which are all made of B20 alloy, then it would be safe to say the S Family cymbals boast more clarity and focus. This has to do with the ratio of copper to tin, as well as the production techniques. At the end of the day, Zildjian's S Family cymbals offer a well-balanced frequency response, making them suitable for just about any musical genre you can think of!

Tips or comments about this product
  • When playing a splash, it's important not to hit the cymbal too hard. The small profile isn't capable of handling large vibrations, and there's a chance the cymbal could crack. If it does, this will happen from the hole in the bell to the edge, or vice versa. Cracks of this kind are usually not covered by the warranty. However, a crack in the bell usually is covered.

Zildjian S Family 10-inch Splash
Wrote the following about Zildjian S Family 10-inch Splash
Ik heb onlangs deze Splash bekken gekocht als aanvulling op mijn Zildjian S family Performer bekken set. Het is een zeer aangenaam geluid en de klank is lekker kort. Zeer goede prijskwaliteit verhouding zoals we van Zildjian gewent zijn.

En ook weer uitstekende service van Bax Music.

Aanrader.
