  • Want a spectacular sounding crash?  Get this! 
  • Well apparently you can’t get this anymore - it’s sold out or no longer available on the Zildjian website and many big box stores.  If you can find this 18”, it’s most likely a stock photo and a guess at what it sounds like! 

  • But not chez Hazelshould!  Listen to your heart’s content! That’s the exact cymbal.

  • And dammit does this 1288 gram one sound great!  Like really, really nice.  
  • A stunning, very versatile 18” Zildjian that can occupy many positions around the drum set. 

  • It’s the perfect blend of dark, semi-dry, smooth, slightly complex and makes a great controlled Light Ride. 

  • AVEDIS SERIES Zildjian 18” Crash or Light Crash Ride.  Certainly a Ride-able Crash or crashable-ride. And it’s in amazing condition! 

  • The very THIN 1288 gram weight gives this 18” a terrific DARK THIN Crash tone that sounds robust when really laid in to. 

  • The edges are thin and bendable. It has an aged softness to it and it’s an actually half-way to vintage land as it is.  

  • The pre-aged patina finish dries this Avedis out a pinch and gives it a quick sustain when crashed upon and a fantastic, semi-dry stick attack when you ride on it.

  • Fantastic Left Side Ride or smaller Light Ride. 
  • Fairly soft pliability - incredible sounding Thin Crash or dark sounding Light Crash Ride. Even opens up with mallets.  Very smooth and responsive.  

  • This particular one is very balanced sounding with a nice fullness when crashed upon. And it has a pinch of shimmer too.

  • Amazing condition with absolutely no issues. Extremely clean with a factory patina. A killer, versatile 18” that Zildjian apparently stopped making.
