Zultan cymbals has announced the release of its brand new AEON cymbal range, featuring a B25 bronze alloy and 20 cymbals - including stacks and FX models - that it says will work for any style of music.

All AEON series cymbals are handmade in Turkey and are hand-hammered, while the bell of each cymbal remains natural. This, combined with the B25 bronze alloy (75% copper, 25% tin) adds-up to what Zultan describes as a “bright and shimmering sound with earthy tones and longer decay, suitable for any musical styles”.

The AEON range comprises twenty cymbals, split into Crash, Ride, Hi-Hats and FX categories, and a set including 15” hi-hats, a 22” ride and 18” crash with a Zultan cymbal bag included.
