Zildjian A Customs

Are Zildjian A Custom cymbals worth all the money you pay for them.

i personally love zildjians expecially the a customs...you can get nice used ones on ebay for much cheaper.

If you like a cymbal and can spare the money any cymbal is worth it. I like the A custom line alot.

The A Custom line is really on the lesser expensive end of good cymbals. You can spend a crapload more on signature lines, not to mention UFIPs, Bosphorous, and others. I just don't care for the brightness of the A Custom sound. I like regular A's and K Customs better.

I like. . .

I like the A customs, they have a nice, versatile sound. And buying them new isn't a good idea, as there are tons of them out on eBay, my site (below) and and other places at very reasonable prices.

I honestly don't care much for A Customs, and for the money I'd buy different cymbals. Don't get me wrong - I'm not saying they are bad cymbals or they sound bad, but I've heard alot better sounding pies in the same price range which I would go for instead. They sound very generic to me, and that's just not what I'm on the market for.
But if you try them out (which is important to do) and like them, go for it!

I got quoted at GC (with a good customer discount!!!) for a 19" A Custom. It cost more than my 16" Signature, and it also cost more than my 18" 2oo2. They aren't cheap...but they aren't super expensive.

i say yes, but i only like the crashes

[Midnight Camel]

i played a few a customs at GC the other day, and honestly i wasnt too impressed
what did stick out were: the paiste sigs, sabian vault, hhx, stuff like that

[Steveskier]

a customs are my favorite cymbals ever....get a clue from my avatar and sig?? lol

[awake94]

tbh i prefer sabian aax cymbals to a custom's. more variety in sound and they are also cheaper.

[Steveskier]

^yea they used to way cheaper but now only a little cause sabian raised their prices

[HyperKid]

Worth so much more than you pay for.
