Turns out it's the old logo from the band 21 Pilots, even with this info it brings up no results lol. It has no Zildjian trademark stamp, the coating and ink logos are falling off as we speak and it has has no written history other than this new video, it's a fake Zildjian lol.
My guess is a 21 pilots fan started getting into drums and bought a cymbal then put that zildjian logo on there themselves along with the 21 pilots logo. That's the only thing that makes sense to me
Here's a vid of the drummer from Twenty One Pilots. It was posted by Zildjian so do with that what you will. ua-cam.com/video/RQRFU3Zmk_A/v-deo.html (It's also interesting to note that Josh Dun of 21 Pilots often used Zildjian A's until his bandmates complained about them)
That was twenty one pilots' logo when they made good music. Kinda funny that some emo kid probably spent too much money buying a bootleg symbol just because of the logo.
That bootleg is surprisingly cromulent. Possibly even better than cromulent. It's just a shame that whoever made it didn't have the confidence to put their own brand name on it, because I feel dirty for liking how it sounds.
That's if you consider the angle where a bootlegger bootlegged it, but... this may be a fan made thing. It's also a machine made cymbal, not a hand hammered one.
I was NOT expecting a bootleg Zildjian to sound that good, let alone be made of the same (or similar) bronze. Also, REALLY digging the red despite blue being my favorite color lol
it has to be a third shift "bootleg" where a legit cymbal factory is run at third shift "off the clock" and all the products are sold illegally and without branding. generally when you see something that is clearly bootleg but still really good quality, that is why. a lot of replacement parts without branding get on the market that way too
@@Gunbudder fun fact the Chinese government actually incentivises this, because of how it helps their economy to have extra spares to sell later or just have extra pricing variety. Just recently I saw some specialist mic arms sold at half the price with no label, and apparently the only issue was they hadn’t lubed the hinges or springs properly.
@@GunbudderThere are several Chinese cymbal companies at this point so obviously it was made in a cymbal factory. No one knows if this was made in a “ghost factory” as it might be simply a label that was used to boost sales.
It's not a bootleg It was made specifically for twenty One pilots and because it's a custom-made for an artist it doesn't come with serial numbers since it was never made for the retail market
That steel cymbal, even though I've already seen the previous video, is still so funny to me. Honestly, it sounds like a old baking sheet! I even went to my kitchen, grabbed my baking sheet out of "storage" (the oven), and hit it just to check. I'm no drummer, but I think that my baking sheet sounds better, somehow. (cursed content idea, use a baking sheet as a ride cymbal, just drill a hole in it and stick it on the stand!)
Low-tech homemade drum sets fascinate me. Add to that buckets as toms, a suitcase as a kick drum, and something as a snare, and you would have a useable drum set. I have seen a chair used as a snare drum for playing with brushes, but I think that it wouldn't work with regular sticks.
For all of those who would like the info: The |-/ symbol was the logo of the duo band, twenty øne piløts, until 2018 when it was changed to ||-//, then the psi symbol in 2021. The drummer, Joshua (Josh) Dun has used the Zildjian A Custom Ping ride for almost all live preformances, when it was changed to a Zildjian K Sweet during the ICY tour. Of course this cymbal has never officaly existed, nor has any logo been seen on any of Josh’s cymbals. If anyone has questions or if i skipped anything, go ahead and tell me, til then |-/
I did a bunch of googling and image searching and I never saw any mentions of red cymbals or pictures of them just red drums and lighting and red reflections but no actual red cymbals. Now we can compare this cymbal to the two legit cymbals that the drummer used and see if we can find a match. It could still just be a fan who did this custom but it might have started as a legit cymbal.
i was really scared he would say it sounded bad when I was surprised at how good it sounded lol Despite how dark it sounds when you tap on it, it splashes brightly when you crash it, plus it has a cool color, so I think this is a real winner here
I was surprised when I heard the fake Zildjan and thought "That's actually... good? Is that supposed to be good?", then relieved when Wade confirmed that it did indeed sound pretty good. If nothing else, this channel has taught me what a good ride cymbal sounds like.
0:45 Since you're curious, mate: The aforementioned |-/ logo on the red ZilFake cymbal was a logo used for a band called "Twenty One Pilots." Their drummer, Josh Dun, (don't quote me on this) most likely used those cymbals for live shows during the Blurryface era (2015-2018).
as someone who used to LOVE twenty one pilots, seeing that the fake zildjan cymbal has their logo on it cracks me up; totally something i would've done back when i was 13
I'm a huge tøp fan and this cymbal has got me scratching my head lol. Josh is a Zildjian artist but has never used any cymbal that resembles this, which makes me incredibly curious about the origin of this bootleg surprisingly nice cymbal
Man, these videos are training my ear for a thing I'll never actually do. He started playing the bootleg and I was like "that sounds fine or am I stupid?" Then he said they sounded great. Hey the sound is all that matters, boot them legs!
that "super secret prototype" logo is actually the old twenty one pilots logo (specifically blurryface era iirc). i wonder if they a: actually sold these to twenty one pilots or b: used the logo to sell more cymbals.
They have no affiliation with this cymbal. Josh dun has signature Zildjian sticks, and signature SJC drums and practice pads, and tyler had a twenty one pilots signature Kala ukulele for a short while, but they have never done anything in relation to cymbals. Josh has only used Zildjian cymbals that are in production. I'm dying to know where this cymbal came from lmao
I believe that symbol is the icon for the band Twenty One Pilots, and one they only used for a few years between like 2015 and 2018. The group is basically a duo with a singing guy and a drums guy so it could be related to the drums guy somehow?
wade, with the size dankpods is, i think zildjian would definitely respond to an email sent to the right department. it seems like it might be some kind of limited edition prototype or custom job for twenty-one pilots stuff or that it’s a weird knockoff that someone in their legal department has either already seen or would be interested in seeing!
granted i do mainly vocals and electric bass, so custom shop stuff and limited edition stuff are way more common in the guitar and bass world. i’m sure that if they had some kind of authentic connection to TOP that there would have been information from the seller who sold you this. wish i could help more. the “contacting zildjian legal” route was just from me remembering that some of the wildest stuff i’ve seen in video game piracy was in photos shared by corporate legal anti-piracy departments
also: after a few minutes of research, the band’s drummer collaborated with zildjian and made a set of signature sticks, and those are the same shade of red this cymbal seems to be
@@ExperimentIVPaul Francis would know the story behind this cymbal as he was head of Artist relations and the prototype department when he was with Zildjian.
It's a knockoff. Look at how the hammer strikes are done. The logo isn't properly done, not only in paint but also in angle / position. This is a fan's custom TOP cymbal OR a freebie given by TOP.
I wasn't expecting it to actually be a decent cymbal! You hit it and I said, "Hey! That's a cymbal!" The fact that the red coating flakes off every time you hit it is super funny as well
I just noticed something, I think Dank uses the same song for his demo of the cymbals as the one he uses for testing headphones on DankPods! I could be wrong but the drumline is practically ingrained in my head lol
I ended up reading about the history of Zildjian cause of the remark you made at the beginning and it's wildly interesting to me. For those that don't know not only is the company 400 years old, it is still privately held by the same family that started it back in 1600's. It emigrated with one of it's ownders to the US in the 1900's and to this day they claim to use the same alloy to make the symbols that was invented over 400 years ago. Cool stuff.
I wonder how they verify that. Methods of manufacture have changed so much they can't be making it the same way. In my mind's eye they have some 400 year old cymbal which they scrape a microscopic bit off of, put it in an analyzer, then test a modern one.. Hushed silence as the machine prints a little strip of paper ... A guy reads it and thumbs up "still the same". The family cheers and breaks out the champagne
It's a little more complicated than that. The original company did not move, a new company was founded. For most of the 20th century, there were two Zildjian companies, K in Turkey and A in the U.S. Sabian used to be a Zildjian factory, where they made some of the first new K cymbals after K Zildjian in Turkey folded.

The symbol is from Twenty One Pilots from the album Blurry Face and red and black was a huge part of the album! They changed the logo when Trenches came out so it was from then I have no idea why it'd be on a red "zilgjian" though
@@kgbofficer5629 I don't think so bc from all the pictures I've seen of Josh's drum set for the tours he has just like normal cymbals It's prolly just like a bootleg someone made to profit off of 21 Pilots?
I don't think it's a fake, it sounds too authentic. I would contact someone at zildjian, my guess is this was made for Josh Dunn and they didn't bother stamping it because he breaks them so quickly anyway.
Was expecting the same visceral reaction as I had to that steel cymbal (that you subjected us to again), but was presently surprised to find it wasn't that bad (from a noob's perspective)
My first ever kit was an Ashton begginer kit, it had a set of dxp cymbals that thinking about it sounded quite similar to that one. I didn't know any better, several neighbours (after I got better) said it sounds good as🤣🤣 Edit: I just remembered it even had dxp skins on it, might as well have been roughly melted down Styrofoam pressed into skins. All the hardware was dxp to😐
I was a fan of their old stuff back in there day, and that symbol on the cymbal (lol) seems a lot like the twenty one pilots logo. I know their drummer josh used zildjians so maybe it has something to do with that?
That cymbal is a nugget of the highest class. Also... I REALLY fucking want that staccato ride. That's one of the nicest sounding cymbals I've ever heard.
hey, could you do a review on the drumeo inears? would be interesting to see what you have to say about them. It probably fits better to your main channel though, idk
Is that logo the 21 Pilots logo? It makes me wonder if they had signature cymbals made or something. A cursory google reveals only sticks, though, so idk.
The steel cymbal made me laugh man. If you showed me this video a couple years ago before I watched dankpods, I would not have cared at all about the differences. Dank is a great teacher
My guess it is a Zildjian factory reject that was swiped from the scrap pile and smuggled out. Wasn't given the etched stamp and logos yet. The lathing and hammering are clearly A Zildjian line and it sounds spot on, save for being a bit mute due to the coating.
I was listening to the comparisons wondering "Well it doesn't sound too bad for a knock off I think?" Full expecting you to tear into it with something I just did not have the ear for. Laughed a little when you confirmed that yes it does sound pretty good. Might be quite impressive if it holds up to extensive play, then it might just have the real thing beat with it's bonus real nice looking and striking colour it has!
Turns out it's the old logo from the band 21 Pilots, even with this info it brings up no results lol.

I'm pretty sure the logo on the cymbal is the twenty one pilots logo.
That thing is DORITO ORANGE. It's not made out of brass, it's made out of polished cheeto dust.
i was surprised how good i thought it sounded and then you came in and said the same thing
I'm a huge sucker for bronze and copper aesthetics and the look of having this bright, shiny-ass orange ring on your set is so cool to me
The logo on the cymbal is for Twenty One Pilots, an emo band for teens. LMFAO
I know because I used to listen to them in middle school.
oh honey, baby, my brother, they are not emo
Uh. They aren’t emo.
Lol not even remotely emo
I was listening to the comparisons wondering "Well it doesn't sound too bad for a knock off I think?" Full expecting you to tear into it with something I just did not have the ear for. Laughed a little when you confirmed that yes it does sound pretty good.
Might be quite impressive if it holds up to extensive play, then it might just have the real thing beat with it's bonus real nice looking and striking colour it has!
You have honestly convinced me to buy any old bronze cymbals I can find, because they will without doubt sound 1000x better than my awful brass meinls
I really like it. It's really sharp sounding.
That looks mighty like a Zildjian. The bell, profile of the bow of the cymbal and HAMMER marks scream Zildjian!
That Christmas ornament finish is either gaudy or gorgeous. I'm leaning towards the latter.
Sounds amazing. That bell would really kill in some more lo-fi produced metal.
Almost reminds me of the ride on panzerfaust by darkthrone
Pheew.. Glad you also liked the sound.. Sounds abit like the Paiste 900 color series..
Man. That's a dope cymbal knockoff or not I really dig the sound.
Man. Gotta get me one of those. Greetings from Mexico, mate!
The red bronze color actually looks really cool
Happy 400 years zildjian I hope you set a bargain for some cymbals on your anniversary
I like that flat gong you have, the one shown at the end of the video DXP I think you called it. Sounds great 🤣
I was not prepared for the noise that came from the steel cymbal.
That was an unexpected plot twist, I was all ready to write a comment that "but it sound quite decent or I'm deaf" :D
Well done Sir.
I was about to go to bed but when drum thing uploads I watch
Daaamn it sounds amazing lmao, much better than the okay-sounding ZBT ride I have that I can't even crash. I want one now lol
I was about to say the same! Sound like a Zildjian A!!! Pretty good and crashable, nice cymbal
I was having a pretty decent day up until the point where you brought out that DXP. Now, I'm thinking about drinking early . . .
In love with the staccato proto
happy 400 years zildjian!
