The Avedis Zildjian Company, more commonly known as Zildjian, is an Armenian-American musical instrument manufacturer and the largest cymbal making company in the world. Founded in 1623 by Avedis Zildjian in Constantinople, Zildjian have been setting the world standard of cymbals for centuries.

Avedis stumbled across the Zildjian alloy in 1618 while working on a formula for the creation of gold. This secret alloy has been at the core of their world class cymbal making ever since. 15 people work together to make every single Zildjian alloy cymbal, while specific ranges are pored over and handcrafted using an intense 14-step process. Each cymbal is then sonically tested by a team of experts (with a combined experience of nearly 100 years) to ensure that they meet the high standards you’ve now come to expect from Zildjian products.

Zildjian Planet Z cymbals are a fantastic entry point into the Zildjian family, perfect for beginners or drummers looking to buy their first set of cymbals. This range replaces the previously popular ZBT series. Planet Z cymbals are made for drummers looking for the standard sizes and sounds to tackle any style of music. Crafted from brass, these cymbals are bright and cutting with a more controlled and focused sound.
