Zildjian‘s limited edition Fall 2022 Concept Shop cymbals are already available!
Zildjian 20″ FX Lunar Crash
Designed in collaboration with Stanton Moore, the cymbal is supposed to sit in the sweet spot between a crash and a ride. It features seven hammered craters to allow for a warm crash sound and funky ride characteristics. Three asymmetrical rivets add a long, shimmering sustain, complemented by a natural finish underneath for extra control and dark undertones.
Basic specs:
- Size: 20″
- Brightness: Medium
- Dryness: Medium to high
- Definition: Medium to low
- Sustain: Rather long

Basic specs:
- Size: 21″
- Brightness: Medium to low
- Dryness: High
- Definition: High
- Sustain: Medium
