All Encompassing Sound Made in collaboration with Akira Jimbo of legendary jazz-fusion outfit Casiopea it makes sense that it has such an encompassing sound. The bell has a distinct pearly sound thats separate from the rest of the cymbal. You could really drive some powerful grooves with that tone. Play it soft play it loud use mallets or nylon tips – there are no creative limitations with a cymbal of this caliber. Hitting the Sweet Spot The K Custom Hybrid cymbals were designed to be versatile. Providing a complex combination of bright and dark tones they are audibly captivating in any situation. Casiopea drummer Akira Jimbo helped design these hybrid cymbals all of which undergo a special mixture of manufacturing processes. The unlathed buffed centre and lathed outer edge helps create the hybrid sound with the outer lathed edge increasing crashability and providing characteristics similar to a thinner cymbal. The centre of the cymbal is where the more focused defined sound is made. This tonal combination ensures these cymbals hit the sonic sweet spot between thin heavy bright and dark.
