Good to know
- Cymbal stands, felts and sleeves are not included.
- Wipe off fingerprints with a soft, dry cloth after playing and carry cymbals in a padded bag.
- Use felts and a sleeve on the stand so metal never touches the cymbal hole, and do not over-tighten the wing nut.
- Zildjian has been making cymbals since 1623.
