Expanding on the successful launch of its ICON Series in 2010, the TRX Cymbal Co. is proud to announce the introduction of the DARK ICON micro-series. Available in a limited range of sizes and types, the new cymbals are characterized by a heavily-hammered, natural playing surface with a lathed, brilliantly finished underside. The line is further distinguished by its extra thin weight— all of which combine to create an extremely deep, dark, vintage tone, lightning-fast response and unconventional, two-tone appearance. In addition, each DARK ICON cymbal includes an innovative series of small holes at strategic locations to facilitate the installation of rivets, jingles and other increasingly popular sound-modifiers and effects.

DARK ICONS are available in 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22 and 23˝ models and 13, 14 and 15˝ matched Hi-Hats. Jingles, rivets and other sound modifiers will be released at a later date.
