Zildjian 19 A Ultra Hammered China

This is a beautiful, powerful, controlled and trashy China! The sustain is perfect and decay is great. I have it on my left just above my main hi hats. I used to have a Paiste 18 RUDE China there, then an 18 Wuhan China and the decay/sustain from The Paiste China was not pleasing to me and the Wuhan 18 had a lack of sustain! This Zildjian A UH China fits perfectly and looks great with the brilliant finish and was shinier that I thought it was going to be. It is a flawless China and I'm so glad I got it through the Sweetwater Giftcard "Gear Exchange" program!

Zildjian 19" Ultra Hammered China

The Zildjian 19"Ultra Hammered China is an incredibly powerful cymbal. I've had this cymbal for a few weeks now and this will cut through any music you are playing. You will certainly be heard! Even with a light touch, it is still quite grand in sound. It has a bright, loud, and trashy sound, all great qualities you want in this type of cymbal. It has a fast decay and allows you to move on in the music without laying around too long. I'm not sure how much louder the 21" version is that Zildjian offers, but I can tell you the 19" is perfect in size, pitch, and sound. It also looks amazing!

If I have any criticism it's that Zildjian should offer this in a 17" version. A smaller version would be little less powerful, allowing for a more diverse music applicability. Keep on Rocking!

Loud, durable, perfect breakdown china

This china is so good, I saw a drummer rocking 2 - one on each side of his kit. Picked this up when I saw that, and I have no regrets. Great for the really heavy stuff.
Rated 5/5

Just NASTY

This China just explodes when you hit it! The 19" provides great resonance with a short decay, while the ultra hammering gives it the perfect amount of trashiness.
I tried this cymbal out after demolishing my 18" Zildjian FX Oriental Trash and it is an upgrade for me.
This is the China for nasty breakdowns and heavy music!!

Absolute best on the market !

Man, this cymbal is the top of the line. I know the price is definitely in the higher price range, but it's so worth it for the sound you get out of it. Although a lot of rock drummers use this cymbal, it's very versatile with its sound. 10/10 would purchase again.

Ask any drummer at Sweetwater, and chances are, we'll tell you that Zildjian represents the gold - or rather bronze - standard in cymbal making. Seriously, Avedis Zildjian may have been trying to make gold, but he did even better when he formulated what's arguably the best cymbal material on the planet. We've played virtually every type of Zildjian cymbal out there, and you won't find anyone at Sweetwater who wouldn't happily recommend their instruments to you, plus their sticks and other accessories are also pretty sweet. Whether you're grabbing your first S or ZBT pack or have saved up for the A or K series cymbals you've always wanted, Sweetwater is your source for all things Zildjian.
