Zildjian A Custom Rezo Crash

[chaz46]

Hi guys, have just come across the new Zildjian A Custom Rezo crashes and was wondering what your opinions of them were? They look pretty nice and lathing on them looks awesome! Thanks.

I've tried (briefly) a few of the rezos, mainly rides.

IMO they look a lot better than they sound. Friggin' bright with unpleasant overtones.

I like them a lot. I like everything in the A-Custom line.

i prefer the sabian o zones

They are horrible.

My school has the 17" crash, and it is really sensitive, and I mean REALLY sensitive, you don't have to hit it hard to get a really big WOOOOSH!!! I kinda like it.

There are no Rezo Rides. Only Crashes.

I had my heart set on an 18" A Custom Crash when I entered the music shop a few months ago and I left with an 18" A Custom Rezo instead. They are the prefect blend between the bright A Custom sound and the sound of a regular Avedis. Great spread of frequencies, great dynamic range and a sound that can fit just about any musical style.

I highly recommend them. Great cymbals.

I too own the 17" and love it. I wanted the intermediate between the regular A custom and A custom medium, and this one got it. The more I play and gets dirty, the more I like it.

A few weeks ago I was looking to buy a 19" A Custom cymbal to go along with my 18" A Custom fast crash, my 17" A Custom Medium crash and my 16" A custom. I took the 18 and 17" cymbals along with me to the store just to make sure they would all get along with one another. I really wanted the 19" Reso to work out, but it just didn't have the same voice when paired and hit at the same time with my other A Customs. I also tried the A Custom 19" Projection crash and that didn't do it either. I ended up getting the 19" A custom.

I would have no problem with the sound of the Resos crashes, they just did not blend well with my other A Customs in my circumstances.

I always take one or two of my other cymbals along for comparison, it save a lot of headaches latter.

You are correct sir, I was hallucinating due to lack of caffiene.

However, I went back to the store today to bang on some more rezos (funny thing, none of them were rides ), and I'm afraid I still cannot share your enthusiasm for them. To my ear they are excessively bright with a truly ugly set of overtones. To each his own!

I love the 17"-20" I have tried. They are truly amazing. I would love an 18" rezo crash and a 19" K hybrid crash...the ideal crash set-up for me.

Personally I wouldn't say they were comparable...

Rezos are nowhere near trashy enough to be compared to o-zones

[DIRKA]

Really nice and great sounding crashes im either going to get a 19" or a z custom thrash ride.

I'm really wanting to get a 10" Rezo Prototype splash. They sound pretty neat! I've been looking for another splash to replace my 10" A Custom......for some reason I just have not been digging it lately
