China Cymbals

The definitive cymbal for edge and aggression.
China cymbals are your go-to for bold, explosive accents and gritty texture. With a distinct shape and trashy, raw tone, these cymbals cut through the mix like nothing else. They’re a powerful ingredient in rock, hardcore and metal due to their punch and aggression, but can add interesting flavour to other genres when used for dynamic accents.
We at Andertons Music Co. stock a wide selection of China cymbals, from mini 8” chinas to large 21” versions. Each offers its own tonal character, with smaller cymbals tending to have a quicker, punchier response, while larger ones provide a deeper, more sustained crash.
Our lineup features top brands like Zildjian, Paiste and Sabian, all built with premium materials and finishes that’s made them staples in almost every metal drum kit. Pick the perfect tone and finish to complement your style.
If you want to experiment with new textures or complete your kit with an essential heavy music tool, our range of China cymbals has the perfect options for you.
