Modern drummers looking for hot, direct, simmering tones would do well to consider Zildjian’s K Custom Hybrid series of cymbals. This 23” ride features an un-lathed and buffed bell and partial bow, lending to a strong bell ping and powerful projection. The heavy weight of this cymbal also lends to its clear stick definition and direct note. Half of the cymbal from the middle of the bow to the edge features tight concentric lathing for dark undertones and a different color palette than the un-lathed portion.
The K Custom Hybrid series is another innovative and musical line developed in conjunction with Akira Jimbo, a leading drum stylist. The Hybrids combine the unlathed, brilliant finish of the K Custom Ride on the inner half with the traditionally finished K Zildjian lathing on the outer half of the cymbal. This results in the possibility of two different sound dynamics depending where the cymbal is played. Additionally, the unlathed section helps to control the wash and sustain, rendering them ideal for recording and live situations.
The Avedis Zildjian Company, simply known as Zildjian is an American cymbal manufacturer based in Norwell Massachussetts.

It is the largest cymbal manufacturer in the world.
