Real bronze from the Far East

Zultan's most affordable cymbal series is called Aja - pronounced "Asia" - and is made in China. Unlike the machine-made B8 cymbals offered in the same price range by their competitors, the Ajas are cast from high-quality B20 bronze and hand-hammered. In addition to the 18" crash, the Aja range offers other individual cymbals in various sizes and designs in addition to various preconfigured sets.

B20 - the standard yesterday, today, and tomorrow

In China, people have been familiar with the manual production of gongs and cymbals for centuries, so a lot of experience has gone into making the Aja series. 80 percent copper and 20 percent tin, B20 for short, is the name of the formula that has long since established itself as the magic formula for high-quality, melodious cymbals. As the cymbals are hand-hammered, each one is unique, which means that slight sound variations among several cymbals of the same type are normal. The sound of the 18" Aja Crash is balanced with a slightly "trashy" note which gives the cymbal its own character.

Good sound doesn't have to cost a fortune

High-quality cymbals are often unaffordable for beginner drummers, so they can now be happy that the Zultan Aja cymbals offer a lot of sound for not a lot of money. No matter if you are playing Rock, Alternative, Grunge, Pop, or Funk - the 18" Aja-Crash can be used in each of these genres thanks to its powerful, harmonious sound. However, with this model even advanced drummers might find exactly the right cymbal to close the remaining gap in their setup.

About Zultan

To provide traditional craftsmanship at a fair price has been the guiding principle of Zultan ever since it was founded in 2000. The firm’s practice of selling directly to the end customer makes it possible to offer very customer-friendly prices. Nevertheless, the production process for Zultan’s trademark cymbals, which are made mainly in Turkey, is of the highest quality, a fact which has ensured they have also been a fixture in the Thomann range since 2011. The nearly 250 Zultan products cover several cymbal series, catering for all sectors of the music market. Zultan also offers accessories such as bags and drumsticks. Thanks to the use of high-quality materials and manufacturing expertise, Zultan really does offer uncompromising quality at a reasonable price.

Save money in the right places

Anyone who is serious about drumming as a beginner drummer knows that a good cymbal sound is just as important as the great features and the cool look of the newly acquired drums. No matter whether you only buy the 18" crash or a complete Zultan Aja cymbal set at an unbeatable price - the investment is definitely worth it, because the cymbals sound so good that you will still have fun playing them years later. The Aja range is so diverse that other cymbals from the hi-hat, crash, ride, china, and splash categories can be purchased later to meet players' growing demands.

Great crash cymbal !
Tseway 05.11.2018
I like the sound, and prefer it over triple the price crashes ! I hit it hard and is seems (and till now it really is) durable ! Great value for me to have this crash to my set ! I still don't believe the (great) sound it produces ! My search for an all around crash is over ! Hit it hard :)

Good price and good sound!
Zacharie 13.08.2013
This is the second time I purchase this very model and for he second time I'm very happy. The cymbal will give you a good high pitch sound when used for a an accent but will also give you a round dark sound when used to support a groove. I'm playing loads of stoner sounding tunes and use 22" ride 20" crash and 18" crash. This cymbal complement the rest of the set quite nicely. At this point I'm only wondering how long the cymbal will last? Awesome price though!!!!

Still going strong

I purchased this years ago, have stored it in the cold, have battered it with constant gigs and band practices. But it still sounds great and has no cracks at all. This is awesome quality for such a cheap price.

delivery is on the level! super! thanks. (even before the Russian post came up with new rules, of course). Crash sounds juicy and dense - I recommend it for purchase, no worse than any promoted brands, which are also more expensive at times.
