Raw look, warm sound

The cymbals in Zultan's Raw series are characterised by their raw, earthy look. The surfaces of the cymbals reveal the natural colour of the B20 bronze: The absence of a clean, polished finish is a very deliberate design decision here. All the Raw cymbals have a dark, dry response that melds perfectly with the rest of the kit – and the band – so they're perfect whenever musicians want warm, unobtrusive cymbal sounds. The cymbals are made in Turkey, the country in which the art of cymbal making is most highly developed and where cymbal smiths who have spent their lives perfecting their craft use traditional methods to create high-quality, beautifully musical instruments.

In tune with the music

Each cymbal in the Zultan Raw series is made from 80% copper and 20% tin – the premium B20 bronze alloy used for really high-end cymbals. Each piece is hand hammered, making every cymbal unique: Great care is taken during final tuning to ensure that the specified tonal tolerances are met. Not lathing the cymbals results, on the one hand, in their appealingly unusual look, on the other hand in a compact, slightly treble-reduced sound with a relatively short sustain. Thanks to these special acoustic characteristics, there is no risk that the cymbals of the Raw series will ever dominate the track they're played on. With a 14" Hi-Hat, a 16" Crash, and a 20" Ride, the Zultan Raw Cymbal Set consists of the three plates absolutely every drummer needs, so it's a great way to get the full palette of sounds these warm, dry cymbals are capable of at a really affordable price. Of course, they look fantastic together too.

From Jazz to Electro and back again

Drummers from the genres of Pop, Fusion, Funk, and Jazz need dynamic cymbals with a fast response that are capable of blending homogeneously into different settings, and the Raw series is perfect for the task: The cymbals can be variously played with sticks, rods, or brushes, and so the set is also suitable for unplugged sessions. Fans of hybrid drumming, in which acoustic and electronic sounds are on an equal footing, also often prefer cymbals with dry sound characteristics – one of the key features of the Raw series. This makes the set here a great way to begin building or to really round off any percussion setup.

About Zultan

To provide traditional craftsmanship at a fair price has been the guiding principle of Zultan ever since it was founded in 2000. The firm’s practice of selling directly to the end customer makes it possible to offer very customer-friendly prices. Nevertheless, the production process for Zultan’s trademark cymbals, which are made mainly in Turkey, is of the highest quality, a fact which has ensured they have also been a fixture in the Thomann range since 2011. The nearly 250 Zultan products cover several cymbal series, catering for all sectors of the music market. Zultan also offers accessories such as bags and drumsticks. Thanks to the use of high-quality materials and manufacturing expertise, Zultan really does offer uncompromising quality at a reasonable price.

Mics love it Raw

The cymbals in this Zultan Raw Set can be used flexibly with virtually no musical limitations, although they're probably not best suited to the very loudest styles. But thanks to this moderate volume profile and their balanced frequency spectrum, a set of Raw cymbals would actually be perfect in the studio, where it's best for a balanced mix if the drum mics pick up the cymbals as little as possible. Equally, even in locations with difficult acoustics, for example in halls with very high ceilings or in cold, boxy rehearsal rooms, the cymbals in the Raw series are sure to deliver very reliable results.

They are alright.

Mongo 09.11.2020

This is a beginner cymbal set. The hihat i think is the best, has good chick, it's powerful when you want it and has a dry timbre but not dead, quite balanced. The crash is dry too, not too powerful but comes alive pretty quickly. The ride is the weakest piece of the set, it`s breaking up too early though it cannot crash like a ride-crash. The ping is good only in a narrow dynamic range. It`s voiced dry-ish but there are some annoying overtones to it which you can mask by adding a sizzle chain and some tape underneath. The bell should be avoided.
Overall, it's a good value for money and surely it can be an upgrade for the basic cymbals that come with the entry level drum kits.
Gets a plus for the looks, they are beautiful.

Ich habe das Set ohne zu testen gekauft. Sozusagen blind. Das kann natürlich ein totaler Reinfall sein. Besser ist sicherlich, wenn man seine Becken vorher mal anspielt.
Der Klang entspricht sehr genau dem, was man auf der Internetseite zu hören bekommt.

Ich spiele damit in einer Coverband. Alle möglichen Stile. Es ist auf jeden Fall allen aufgefallen, dass dieses Set deutlich anders klingt. Trotzdem passt es zu allen Songs.

Die Optik ist wirklich sehr rustikal. Zu meinem "blue flame" Drumset, sieht es Top aus.
