Derringers Music are pleased to present the Zildjian K Paper Thin Crash, 20 Inch.
Zildjian is celebrating its 400th anniversary in myriad ways, including the grand introduction of these new Zildjian K Paper Thin crash cymbals. They're the thinnest crashes in the entire K family and the largest paper thin cymbals in Zildjian's entire history!
Featuring a 3-step hammering process, these K Paper Thin cymbals have a dark and explosive crash with a quick decay that many Derringers drummers find useful for medium-to-loud accents and effects. The K Paper Thin crashes' larger sizes also give them lower pitches and overtones, great for soft cymbal rolls that underscore dramatic sections of music. Finally, their stick feel is silky smooth, making K Paper Thin crashes a joy to play at any dynamic level.

Zildjian began offering Paper Thin cymbals as early as the 1950's. After an exhaustive review of over 70 years in cymbal trends for musical needs that still exist today, the result is a resounding answer to years of customers demanding the return of this weight class. Thanks to new advancements by Zildjian’s R&D team, this new assortment joins the iconic K Family with 18", 19", 20", 21" and 22" crash offerings that blend the popular Paper Thin qualities with the characteristics unique to larger cymbal sizes.
As strong as they are thin, these cymbals offer an explosive dark crash with quick decay, and a buttery under-stick feel. A key feature is a reimagined three step hammering process which unlocks flexibility and sonic nuances that contribute to the unique signature of these crashes. The very thin profiles allow extra shimmer when crashed, providing a low end resonance not found anywhere else in the K Family.
