    its a cymbal that often has holes dilled in it and rivets in it or a chain attached that bounces on the cymbal to create a sizzling effect
    I really wish that we could actually show the pictures in here...

    Cool what is a Sizzle cymbal?

    ...not to be confused with a Chinese cymbal or a trash cymbal, which sound similar, but they don't have rivets...
    keep the beat goin' ... Don't keep it to yourself!

    sounds like I'll have to try 'em, funky! I must admit "swish knockers" almost sounds R-rated!

    Tip I got from DrumTips.com:
    Put pennies or dimes on a thin piece of duct tape and tape the top portion to your ride cymbal. It will make your ride cymbal sound just like a sizzle cymbal.
