With the Buffed Bronze cymbals, Zildjian introduces the second generation of the GEN 16 series. Just like their predecessors, these cymbals feature a hole grid which provides a reduction in volume by 70%. Aside from the new material, the GEN 16 Buffed Bronze cymbals have some more advantages as well.
The polished GEN 16 Bronze cymbals produces a much warmer and fuller tone than the nickel plated predecessors which should be especially interesting for drummers who want to use the GEN 16 Buffer Bronze cymbals for quiet practicing without pickups. The sound upgrade is also noticeable when you use the cymbals with the GEN 16 Direct Source pickups and the channel controller.
The GEN 16 Buffed Bronze cymbals are available separately without the pickups. A great choice if you want to use these innovative cymbals for quiet practicing or acoustic gigs. If you want to have the GEN 16 pickup, you can simply order them. This package already includes the pickups!
Material and weight give the GEN 16 Buffed Bronze cymbals a playing feel which is exactly like a "real" acoustic cymbal. This makes the cymbals a great choice for music schools as well. Authentic feeling combines with low volume.
