Zildjian FXRCSM FX Raw Prato crash 17"-24"

The Raw Crash is a cymbal like no other – unrefined and completely unique. With a short and explosive crash, it also works as an alternate ride that is dry and cutting. Each sound sample below includes 3 different Raw Crashes to emphasize the highly unique nature of this cymbal.
Raw crashes are not hammered or lathed, which gives each a highly irregular profile and an unrefined surface. They are also not trimmed into a perfect circle, resulting in odd shapes, sizes (max 24” in diameter), and a naturally coarse edge. Altogether, these variations in profile, shape, size and edge consistency are what create the wildly individual sounds from one crash to the next that make these cymbals so special.
