{"product_id":"16-s-medium-thin-crash","title":"Zildjian S Series 16\" Medium Thin Crash","description":"\u003ch2\u003eThe Crash That Works for Almost Everything\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere's a reason the medium thin weight is so popular — it lives right in that sweet spot between a feathery accent cymbal and a full-on heavy hitter. The Zildjian S Series 16\" Medium Thin Crash gives you that versatility in a single cymbal. Whether you're laying down a gentle ghost accent or digging in for a dramatic fill, it responds cleanly and musically at every dynamic level.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe S Family is Zildjian's take on a well-rounded, giggable line built for today's drummers. It's designed to sit comfortably across a wide range of styles without pulling you in any one direction — and at 16\", it hits a size that feels right in just about any kit configuration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you're building your first serious cymbal setup or filling out a kit that needs a reliable, bright crash to anchor the right side of your kit, this one belongs on your list.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eB12 Alloy: Bright, Balanced, and Expressive\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe S Series is built from Zildjian's B12 alloy — an 88% copper, 12% tin formula engineered to produce a balanced frequency response across lows, mids, and highs. It's a different recipe from the B20 bronze used in Zildjian's upper-tier lines, and it produces a distinctly bright, expressive character that works well in loud live environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe result is a cymbal with a strong high-end presence and longer sustain than you might expect from its size. Players often find the brightness helps it cut through dense mixes without having to hit harder — which is good news for your wrists and your bandmates' ears alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHand Hammered and Fully Lathed\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery cymbal in the S Family goes through extensive hand hammering and full top-and-bottom lathing. The hammering shapes the cymbal's tonal complexity and helps it respond consistently across the full dynamic range — from soft stick touches to hard crash hits. The lathing dials in the weight and feel, so what you hear in the shop is what you'll get on stage night after night.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe brilliant finish does more than look sharp under stage lighting — Zildjian says it actually helps open the sound up, contributing to that bright, shimmering character the S Family is known for.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Features:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries:\u003c\/strong\u003e Zildjian S Family (S Series)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 16\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e Medium Thin — the most versatile weight in the S Family crash lineup\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e B12 alloy (88% copper, 12% tin) for a balanced frequency response\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Brilliant — bright, shimmering look and sound\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSound:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bright and full with excellent projection\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSustain:\u003c\/strong\u003e Long — creates a stronger high-end tone that carries\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConstruction:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hand hammered and fully lathed top and bottom\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSKU \/ Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e S16MTC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Zildjian\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eModel:\u003c\/strong\u003e S Series Medium Thin Crash\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSKU:\u003c\/strong\u003e S16MTC\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e New\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSince 1872, C.A.
