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.
