Description
In the 18″ size, the Trash Hit leans more toward a hybrid crash–china or swish-like character, offering a wider, more powerful voice while retaining its fast response. It delivers sharp accents with an aggressive edge, yet remains controlled enough for creative punctuation rather than sustained wash.
Sound & Feel:
- Fast, trashy attack with an aggressive bite
- Hybrid character blending crash, china and swish qualities
- Quick decay that keeps accents tight and defined
- Flexible, expressive feel thanks to the warped outer edge
Built to Perform:
- Handcrafted using traditional Turkish cymbal-making techniques
- Creative lathing design produces a unique, modern voice
- B20 bronze construction for rich harmonics and durability
- Designed for bold accents and unconventional cymbal textures
Ideal For:
- Drummers seeking aggressive, trashy accent cymbals
- Modern, experimental, fusion and alternative styles
- Players looking to expand their cymbal palette with unique textures
- Studio and live setups needing fast, attention-grabbing effects
