The Zildjian Legacy: 400 Years of Excellence

Founded in Constantinople in 1623, Zildjian is the oldest manufacturer of musical instruments in the world and one of the oldest continuously operating companies globally. What began with Armenian alchemist Avedis Zildjian discovering a secret alloy of tin, copper, and silver has evolved into the world's leading cymbal manufacturer, trusted by drummers across every genre.

From Gene Krupa's pioneering jazz work to Ringo Starr's explosive Beatles performance on The Ed Sullivan Show in 1964, Zildjian has defined the sound of modern drumming. Today, the company remains family-owned and operated, with 14th generation daughters Craigie and Debbie Zildjian continuing this extraordinary heritage.

When you choose Zildjian, you're not just buying a cymbal – you're investing in four centuries of metallurgical mastery, innovation, and an unwavering commitment to drummers worldwide.

Our Complete Zildjian Range

At Angkor Music, we stock the entire Zildjian family of cymbals. From legendary classics to cutting-edge innovations, we have the perfect cymbal for every drummer and every musical style.

Why Choose Angkor Music for Zildjian Cymbals?

From Beginner to Pro: We Have Your Sound

Whether you're a student drummer selecting your first pro cymbal, a gigging musician upgrading your setup, or a session pro seeking that perfect sonic signature, Angkor Music has the Zildjian cymbals you need.

Our experienced team understands that every drummer has unique requirements. We'll help you navigate Zildjian's comprehensive range to find cymbals that match your playing style, musical genre, and budget. Need to build a complete setup? We can configure A/K hybrid setups, match hi-hats with rides and crashes, and suggest effect cymbals that complement your sound.

For Jazz Drummers

We recommend exploring the K Constantinople series for authentic vintage jazz tone, K Custom Dark series for modern jazz fusion applications, or the K Kerope series for that sought-after vintage Turkish sound. Our team can help you find the perfect balance of wash, stick definition, and musical complexity.

For Rock & Metal Players

Check out the A Custom series for cutting power that slices through any mix, A Series for versatile rock tones, or the K Custom Hybrid series for dark aggression with modern projection. We stock signature models from Dave Lombardo, Travis Barker, and more.

For Studio Musicians

Studio work demands versatility and consistency. Our staff can recommend cymbals that record beautifully across various mic techniques, from the controlled wash of K series to the focused attack of A Customs.

For Beginners & Students

Start your journey right with the S Family or ZBT series. These offer genuine Zildjian quality at prices that won't break the bank. As you progress, we'll help you upgrade strategically – perhaps starting with professional hi-hats, then adding a quality ride.
