- A fantastic sounding Light Sizzle that sounds like it was plucked right off a 1960 Columbia Jazz Recording!
- Very smooth and delicate sounding EARLY 1960s HAND HAMMERED Vintage Zildjian 18” Sizzle Ride in terrific shape.
- Super LIGHT and AIRY sounding with a solid definition and a hint of sizzle sibilance.
- 1727 grams gives it terrific stick attack on top with a lightness that follows.
- Absolutely perfect stick attack to wash ratio.
- It’s heavy enough to deliver solid stick articulation but has a lightness to it.
- Overall very responsive. Great crash accents.
- Many famous recordings were done on 18s”!
- Where this 18” really shines is the airy, LIGHTNESS it brings to a setup. This 18” Sizzle delivers a warm, slightly complex but mellowed and aged SIZZLE tone.
- It was made 60 years ago. And it SOUNDS like a cymbal made over 60 years ago.
- Modern Zildjians are great - but they don’t do THIS.
- No issues. Amazing shape with a great golden patina. Hand Hammering throughout.
- Primed for 3 rivets and currently outfitted with all 3.
- Add or subtract to your liking but it sounds amazing right where it is.
- Can be a main ride or Left Side Light Crash Ride.
- Don’t spend more on the new faux vintage ones that you can’t even hear before you buy.
- Have a listen to this one! It sounds killer and it’s cheaper and more fun to play the 60 year old original.
