Revitalized and reimagined, the Z Custom series now offers drummers a dynamic array of explosively bright and cutting tones, ideal for unleashing their musical prowess across genres like metal, punk, and hard rock. With a redesigned structure aimed at elevating musicality, responsiveness, and longevity, these iconic cymbals boast a stunning brilliance and retain the beloved star pattern of their predecessors.
