Good value for money
Solid construction and nice finish. The leather straps could be slightly longer for larger hands, but overall a great purchase.

Great sound, needs breaking in
The tone was a bit tight at first, but after a few practice sessions, they opened up beautifully. Excellent craftsmanship for the price.

Loud and clear
Bought these for a school cultural festival. They are loud enough for outdoor events and the pitch is very consistent between the pair.

Beautiful resonance
The sustain on these cymbals is amazing. They blend well with other traditional instruments and add a wonderful layer to our ensemble.

Perfect for our folk dance troupe
These cymbals have an incredible ring that cuts through the music without being harsh. The weight is perfect for waist drum routines, and they feel very sturdy.

Authentic Beijing quality
As a professional percussionist, I appreciate the traditional hammering marks. They provide a genuine sound that matches our historical performances perfectly.
Q: Can these be used for modern drum kits?
A: While designed primarily for traditional folk music, some musicians use them for special effects in modern setups due to their unique metallic timbre.
Q: Do you offer different thickness options?
A: Currently, we stock the standard performance thickness which offers the best balance between durability and resonance for waist drumming.
Q: What is the approximate diameter of the large size?
A: The large size cymbals typically measure around 14 to 16 inches in diameter, suitable for standard waist drum formations.
Q: How should I clean the cymbals to maintain the shine?
A: We recommend wiping them with a soft, dry cloth after each use. Avoid chemical polishes as they may remove the traditional patina and affect the sound.
Q: Are these cymbals sold as a pair or individually?
A: These waist drum cymbals are sold as a matched pair to ensure consistent tone and balance during performance.
