Historical Context and Positioning in the Range
The result of over two years of research and design, the Zildjian S series was created to offer modern, musical, and accessible cymbals while maintaining the brand's high standards. Within the Zildjian lineup, it is positioned as a versatile solution for drummers seeking a refined sound without moving into more specialized series. The S Thin Crash 20 perfectly embodies this spirit: a generous crash, easy to use, designed to perform well in many contexts.
Who This Drum/Instrument Is For
This crash is aimed equally at beginner drummers looking for a cymbal that is easy to make sound, and intermediate musicians wanting to expand their setup with a larger, more "open" crash. Its versatility makes it comfortable in pop, rock, indie, funk, variety, and even more dynamic contexts where broad accents that fill the space are needed. In the studio or rehearsal, its "thin" profile helps achieve clean crashes at low or medium volume without having to hit too hard.
