- Here’s a 50-year-old semi-dark Complex sounding RINGO style PAPER THIN 18”.
- And its factory stamped “THIN CRASH”. Not that easy to find!
- Most of the thinner Zildjians succumbed at the end of a 2B stick outside the Rainbow Room in 1987.
- This one is ONLY 1296 grams.
- And PLAYS like a true Paper Thin. Thinner edges with that paper-thin complexity. Fairly steep profile on this one gives it that full RINGO thing. Fairly complex for an 18”.
- No need to spend more money on a big box store Zildjian when you can get an actual, hard-to-find TRULY THIN 18” CRASH that’s 50 years old.
- Here’s that classic 60s/70s A tone - but in a Paper Thin.
- Opens up very quickly with a broad spread.
- The tone we’ve heard for generations of rock, pop, and soul.
- Of course, if you have a light touch, you can easily use this 18” as a small Light Ride or a swelling Crash Ride. When you crash ride on it, it unleashes a gorgeous torrent of white noise that has a broad spread.
- Magnificent condition for a half-century-old Zildjian. Nice golden patina. Light use. Beautiful vintage lathing.
- Vintage As are always in style, and this 18” Paper Thin Crash is exceptionally hard to find these days.
- No need to paw through an ocean of modern Zildjians to find one that kinda-sorta sounds vintage-ish.
- The REAL DEAL right here!
