Zildjian - K Family 13" Bottom

The Zildjian K Family 13" Bottom plays an essential role in the sonic balance of the Hi-Hat. With its Medium Heavy thickness, this cymbal adds more depth and definition to the footwork, while retaining the dark, complex texture typical of the K series. The result is immediate: a deep, compact, well-articulated 'chick' that remains legible even in dynamic situations.

The 13-inch format helps to deliver a fast, responsive response that's great for precise grooves, short openings or more detailed ghost-note playing. In modern jazz, fusion or neo-soul, it retains a beautiful musicality with rich, natural nuances. In stronger styles like indie or alternative rock, it retains a clear presence without becoming aggressive.

Made from B20 bronze with a traditional finish, this Bottom retains the raw, organic character that has built the reputation of K Zildjian. It adds weight to the Hi-Hat without crushing the nuances, with an interesting balance between depth, definition and speed of response.
