I purchased this Zildjian 17" K Custom Special Dry Trash after quite a bit of research and it did not disappoint!
I bought this to accent my cymbal set up and add a modern pop element to my sound. It's dark, with an extremely fast decay. Very dry, almost artificial sounding. Creates a perfect trashy burst and then gets out of the way fast! Sounds great to enhance other cymbals, or accent your playing. It also sounds class when partnered with a loud rimshot or snare crack. There is almost no sustain. So this is strictly an add on. Not to be treated as your main cymbal in a traditional set up. But I can guarantee you it's a lot of fun playing it. The trick is to avoid the temptation keep playing it!
It will sound awesome in modern styles like soul, hip hop, and pop. If you like dry expressive cymbals with personality this is a standout!
