Zildjian

The FX China Trash 20" is the largest cymbal in its line: a broad, bright, trashy effects china, wide enough to play whole patterns on. It is for the heavy music drummer who wants a wall of dirty sound on the choruses.

What sets it apart

  • The largest diameter in the China Trash line
  • Bright, trashy china effect
  • Definition and sustain of 7 out of 10 according to Zildjian
  • Explosive response despite its size

Big enough to play on

On Zildjian's Sound Lab, the 20" is the most defined and most sustained of the line (7 out of 10 for both), with the lowest brightness (5). In other words, it keeps a pattern readable while roaring more. In metal and hardcore, it is often used as a dirty ride on the heavy sections.

Frequently asked questions

Can you play a ride pattern on a china?
Yes, especially on a large china like this one, whose definition holds the pattern. The result is dirtier and more aggressive than a ride: perfect for a heavy chorus.
Do china cymbals break easily?
According to Zildjian, most cymbals crack because of improper technique. Let the china move on its stand, without clamping it down, and strike with a loose motion.
What size china for metal?
In metal, drummers often look for a large china for its size of sound. This 20" is the largest in the China Trash line, offered from 10" to 20": wide enough for patterns, lively enough for accents.
