If you're new to drumming, you might be wondering what a splash cymbal sounds like. The answer is simple... it's right there in the name! Anyone who's ever heard any cymbal and who's ever jumped into a pool can get the idea - just cross the two sounds over, and you're on the right track. But if you want something a little better to go on, that's no sweat either: just put on some music with Gene Krupa or Stewart Copeland drumming. We have Krupa to thank for the invention of splash cymbals and Copeland brought them back into the limelight, so listening to their work can give you a good idea of what these heavy splash cymbals are capable of.

Since splash cymbals in general are designed to be hit hard, it makes sense to look for one that's pretty heavy. But that's not the only choice to face in this section, and each cymbal has its own voice that lends itself to different styles of music. So keep that in mind! If you're a metalhead or a punk rocker, you'll probably want to try your hand at cymbals like the Paiste Rude Splash and the Meinl Classics Custom Extreme Metal Splash Cymbal. Or for the classic rockers, maybe the Istanbul Mehmet Carmine Appice Splash or the Meinl Mb20 Rock Splash Cymbal? And for newcomers to the splash cymbal scene, it's hard to beat the Mapex Boom Arm with Free 10" Splash Cymbal - just think of it the other way around, as a cymbal that includes its own hardware.

Whatever stands out to you in this selection of heavy splash cymbals, it's safe to say you're on the right track. That's because there's no wrong choice. Every part of a percussion setup is subject to choice based on your personal tastes, and that's why no two drummers sound exactly alike on the stage. So go ahead and take your time picking out the heavy splash cymbal that will be the best fit for you - in the end, that's what matters most of all.
