{"product_id":"agean-splash-12-r-series-natural-silent-cymbal-293864","title":"12\" SPLASH R SERIES NATURAL - SILENT CYMBAL","description":"\u003ch3\u003eHistorical Context and Positioning in the Range\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eAgean R Series Natural\u003c\/strong\u003e follows the tradition of Turkish handcrafted cymbals: old-fashioned metalwork where hammering and finishing aim to preserve the grain and personality of each piece. Within the range, this series stands out for its \"low volume\" approach oriented towards practical use and intimate settings, while claiming premium raw material with \u003cstrong\u003eBronze B20\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWho This Drum\/Cymbal Is For\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis \u003cstrong\u003e12\" splash cymbal\u003c\/strong\u003e is aimed at drummers from \u003cstrong\u003ebeginner to advanced levels\u003c\/strong\u003e seeking a serious solution for playing at reduced volume without falling into a \"flat\" or artificial feel. It is particularly suited for styles requiring short, precise accents (pop, funk, modern jazz, electro-acoustic, worship, unplugged sessions) and for any context where volume control is essential: home practice, lessons, rehearsals in small spaces, or light acoustic sets.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFeatures and Innovations\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis splash employs \u003cstrong\u003etraditional manufacturing\u003c\/strong\u003e combined with \u003cstrong\u003ehand hammering\u003c\/strong\u003e to preserve genuine dynamics under the stick. The series' distinctive feature lies in its \u003cstrong\u003ehand-drilled holes\u003c\/strong\u003e, drilled one by one, a method that promotes an even distribution of openings and thus a more gradual volume reduction. The result: you retain the crisp attack and immediate response typical of a splash, while significantly limiting sound pressure-ideal for practice and small ensembles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSound Characteristics\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThanks to the \u003cstrong\u003eBronze B20\u003c\/strong\u003e alloy, this splash maintains a richer signature than most practice cymbals: harmonics remain present, with a more \"musical\" and less metallic sound. B20 generally provides greater complexity, a clear attack, and a softer feel, which helps in working on dynamics and placement precision, even at low volume.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn play, you get a \u003cstrong\u003eshort accent\u003c\/strong\u003e with a \u003cstrong\u003efast and controlled decay\u003c\/strong\u003e, particularly useful for punctuating a groove without overwhelming the sound space. The perforations help reduce sustain and slightly dry out the sound, improving clarity in acoustic setups and facilitating balance with non-amplified instruments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:2rem\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"flex:1 1 300px\"\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width:100%\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAgean warranty\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e2 years, except for splash cymbals and cymbals from the R Series\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Agean","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54361453265171,"sku":"293864","price":139.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0984\/0872\/6803\/files\/d693b711ee3aad228f87c6141b2ced9c25872ab0_AGE_RN12SP.jpg?v=1787426925","url":"https:\/\/woodbrass.shop\/products\/agean-12-splash-r-series-natural-silent-cymbal-293864","provider":"Woodbrass.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
