The Zildjian FX Series ZIL-BEL proves that you can never have too many sounds when your creativity demands them. The Zildjian Sound Lab continues the tradition of working with the world's most inventive and experimental drummers and percussionists ? like Alex Acuna, Dennis Chambers, and Zach Danziger ? to create uniquely designed, innovative sound effects. The FX Series ZIL-BEL's exotic sound colors help you define your signature sound and add character and variety to your kit.





Cast bronze cymbals for premium tone and projection


The Zildjian FX Series, like all Zildjian cast bronze cymbals, are individually poured and cast from raw molten metal. Each casting is cooled and sorted by weight for each cymbal model. Castings are then put through a complex sequence of heating, rolling, shaping, hammering, and lathing techniques unique to each cymbal range. Cast bronze cymbals have a rich, full-bodied sound that improves with age. They also have greater projection, clarity, and durability than any other cymbals. Zildjian cast cymbals are made from the Zildjian secret alloy, which is comprised of 80% copper, 20% tin, and traces of silver.
