Love at first sight
Zultan's Q Series is a range of medium-heavy, hand-hammered Turkish cymbals made of B20 bronze, which are striking because of their unusual appearance. The different surface treatments are not only pleasing to the eye, but also have an effect on the sound. The result is a sound that can be used in many different styles, cuts through well, and at the same time has a dark, warm sound range. The affordable Q Series is aimed at ambitious beginners and advanced drummers and offers individually available hi-hats, crashes, splashes, and rides as well as pre-configured complete sets.

Contrasts attract attention
While the completely lathed and high-gloss polished bottom of the Q cymbals is similar to the popular Zultan Rock Beat series, the upper side is absolutely unique. The rim, which is covered with deep hammer indentations, is unlathed - just like the bell - and creates a strong contrast to the high-gloss central area with its raw, earthy look. The manual workmanship of Zultan's experienced Turkish cymbal smiths makes each cymbal really unique. The 18" crash has a powerful, dynamic, full sound with a slightly dark character and medium sustain.
One letter - many uses
The Zultan Q cymbals are in the medium weight category and are ideal for genres such as Pop, Funk, and Blues thanks to their warm and balanced sound with a slightly reduced treble range. Their sound always blends homogeneously into the musical environment and leaves plenty of room for the other instruments. With its full-bodied, sustaining sound, the 18“ crash is not only suitable for powerful accents, but also for playing on the quarter notes throughout without the risk of ruining your ears. Thanks to its size and the distinct-sounding bell, you can even use it as a light ride cymbal when you play it with thin drumsticks.

Stage, rehearsal room, studio - the Q Series does it all
The 18" Zultan Q crash is an excellent choice wherever a concise but not-too-bright crash sound is desired, be it a Blues session, Funk gig, or Pop concert. Regardless of whether it is played loudly or softly, a pleasant sound unfolds which always remains controllable and never pushes itself too far into the foreground. Another possible use is in the mixed genres of acoustic and electronic music that are so popular these days and in which mostly rather dark-sounding cymbals are preferred, as they blend better with the music in terms of sound. Last but not least, the Q cymbals also do an excellent job in the studio, as their sound properties make them extremely microphone-friendly.
