- I got this from a unicorn who was cleaning out his rainbow: PRE SPLIT Istanbul AGOP MEHMET Paper Thin 16” Crash in Amazing condition! Extremely clean!
- I was like “Damn unicorn? Is it factory stamped too?”
- The unicorn sneezed a field of orchids, winked at me and joined the parade of clouds.
- As rare as rare can be….
- Hand Hammered - Before ANYONE had seen this kind of craftsmanship and beauty! This is the mid 80s and early 90s and this is THE company that ushered in the old world craftsmanship renaissance - the kind of artistry that fomented a movement of boutique cymbalsmiths.
- Istanbul’s old-world Zildjian Istanbul K-styled handiwork attracted the ears and signatures of jazz greats Mel Lewis and Elvin Jones. And this “PAPER THIN CRASH” is from that hallowed era.
- Opens very quickly. Inimitable Complex shimmer. With a hand hammered broad spread. FAST. Tons of character to it. Crashes like nothing else on the kit.
- Factory stamped “PAPER THIN CRASH” 16” in rare RED.
- 828 grams. As musical as the first artists they attracted. The rest, as they say, is history….
- I’ve not seen another. Looks like it came through a Time Machine it’s so clean.
