Zildjian K1219 19" K Custom Hybrid Crash
A Larger, More Expressive Hybrid Voice
The Zildjian K1219 takes the acclaimed Hybrid Crash design into a more powerful 19" size, offering expanded projection, enhanced complexity and broader dynamic range. Developed with Akira Jimbo, this cymbal blends a brilliant inner finish with a traditional lathed outer bow, producing distinctive hybrid tonality. Its larger diameter adds fullness and presence, making it ideal for players wanting both explosive attack and rich musical warmth.
Versatility for Studio & Stage
Featuring an unlathed bell, the K1219 projects with authority comparable to heavier cymbals while retaining the quick response of a thin crash. This allows drummers to move seamlessly between subtle articulation and bold accents, creating expressive variations depending on where the cymbal is struck. Perfect for live performance, recording and multi‑genre setups.
