Fazley CYM Century China 16-inch Cymbal

General

Made from B20 bronze alloy, the refined 16-inch Fazley CYM Century China has the unusual, two-tone texture created by a traditionally finished outer edge and brilliantly finished inner-edge. While it looks great, this specific finish has a dramatic effect on the sound.

The Fazley CYM Century China

In terms of sound, this China cymbal boasts surprising flexibility. The volume never gets too extreme, giving it a more friendly feel when compared to other chinas, while the initial attack is definitely solid and presence, but is immediately followed by a medium-to-short sustain that's packed with warmth and free of any bizarre resonance. The sharp attack slices through the on-stage mix without ever sounding too shrill, making it the perfect all-rounder for straight up pop and rock drumming.
