SPLASH Cymbal

Splash Cymbal
Appropriately named, splash cymbals add a "splash" of color to your playing. Splash cymbals are smaller, thinner, and delicate cymbals that respond and fade quickly (a sound very similar to the "choke" effect created when grabbing a crash cymbal after it is struck). This quick bright attack and short decay is how the splash acquired its name. Their main use is to set quick and sometimes delicate accents of short duration within the musical context.

Splash cymbal sizes are 6, 8, 10, and 12 inch. Splash cymbals are a great add-on cymbal to the basic cymbal setup.
