• Prepare Your Cymbal Stand — Ensure your cymbal stand is stable. The sizzler's washer has a 1/2" opening, designed to fit securely over the standard cymbal stand post, above or below your cymbal felts.
• Attach the Sizzler — Slide the washer onto the cymbal stand post. You can place it above or below the cymbal's felt washers. The 10.5" beaded chain will then hang freely, ready to make contact with the cymbal.
• Play and Adjust — Hit the cymbal with your stick or brush. The stainless steel beads will bounce, creating a sizzling sustain. Adjust the chain's position or angle slightly to fine-tune the intensity and decay of the sizzle effect.
