"Every cymbal has a story. Some need to be told for the first time. Others need to be retold."
Trash Goblin is a one-person operation rooted in over three decades of hands-on cymbalsmithing. This isn't a factory line — it's a forge. Every cut, every hammer strike, every modification is guided by deep knowledge of alloy, resonance, and the ancient craft that links today's cymbals to centuries of metalwork tradition.
From rescuing cracked vintage cymbals to conjuring entirely new voices from raw bronze, Trash Goblin exists for drummers who want something the catalog can't give them.
Cracked, keyholed, or written off — bring it in. Precision cutting, re-shaping, and hammering to bring damaged cymbals back from the dead, often with a new voice they never had before.
InquireCustom FX cymbals, stacks, modifications, cuts, and experimental builds designed around your sound. Describe the voice you're chasing — let the forge figure out the rest.
InquireReady-made Trash Goblin originals — crashes, chinas, stacks, splashes, and FX pieces. Each one hand-finished, each one unique. No two cymbals leave the shop sounding the same.
