DISCLAIMER

You may notice color variation across your S Dark cymbals. Their unique look is from a custom coating that is individually hand-finished by our cymbal craftsmen. This process allows no two S Dark cymbals to look identical - making your cymbals unique to you. Any aesthetic variation from our hand-finishing process still delivers a consistent sound profile.

Not what I ordered

"Sounds fine, but does not sound like the sounds on the page at all. It sounds like hitting an actual trash can lid, in the worst way possible. I've tried many ways of orienting it and hitting it, and I can't achieve that sound at all. I might have to resort to drilling holes in it to get a drier sound."

Beautiful sound, classic shape, great

"Beautiful sound, classic shape, great response. Gorgeous color and surface detail all add up to a great cymbal. I might buy a bigger one next time!"
