The Zildjian A Avedis AA19C 19 inch Crash Cymbal cymbals have a sound that distinguishes it from every other Zildjian cymbal, complex yet familiar with a great balance of bright and dark overtones. Its timeless individual aged patina, classy and understated Avedis logo, and gram weight of the cymbal handwritten underneath the bell all complete the package.
A Zildjian’ cymbals began with Avedis Zildjian III. Popular music of the 1930s-1970s demanded cymbals of extreme versatility: dynamic and controllable HiHats, clean and cutting Crashes, thrilling and rich Rides, all with a looser feel and immense musicality. It was these cymbals, crafted by Avedis Zildjian III in the mid-20th century that helped compose the beat of an era that changed music forever. These unique sounds were instrumental in driving music into a period that not only shaped popular culture, but transformed the way we hear music. Zildjian ‘A Avedis’ cymbals are a vintage recreation of that timeless sound and feel.
