This pre-owned Zildjian L80 Low Volume 18" China Cymbal is designed for drummers who want the feel and response of a real cymbal, but at a much lower playing volume.
The L80 Low Volume range is ideal for home practice, teaching rooms, quiet rehearsal spaces and acoustic practice kits. This 18" China adds an extra effects voice to an existing L80 setup, giving you that trashy china-style accent without the full volume of a traditional acoustic china cymbal.
It can be used as a standalone low-volume china, added to a Zildjian L80 cymbal set, or even experimented with as part of a low-volume stack.

Why Choose This Cymbal?
The Zildjian L80 Low Volume 18" China is a useful addition for drummers who already use low-volume cymbals and want more variety in their practice setup. Standard china cymbals can be extremely loud, so this gives you a much more manageable way to practise china accents, breakdowns and effects patterns at home.
It is especially useful when paired with mesh heads or other quiet drum practice equipment, helping you keep the feel of an acoustic kit while keeping the overall volume much lower.
For anyone building a low-volume practice kit, this is a great way to add a proper effects cymbal without jumping back up to full acoustic cymbal volume.
