  • A beautiful Zildjian that’s a sonic time-capsule:

  • Glorious rounded-bell 1950s Vintage Zildjian LIGHT Crash Ride in a very rare 19” size. 

  • Perfect 1953 New York City vibe on this one - Max Roach or Kenny Clarke style. A beautiful sonic period piece thar is light and airy and very musical! 

  • Sounds and plays lighter than the gram weight suggests but that weight comes in handy for stick definition. Surprisingly broad spread - that’s the Hand Hammered love talking.

  • Goldilocks weight of 1496 grams - and on a 1950s 19”, that’s a beautiful thing! Light but still with a Medium Thin weight.

  • Opens faster than a larger 20” or 22” but is still generous enough to ride upon. Makes a perfect main ride for smaller gigs or is the quintessential 19” Left Side Crash Ride. 

  • Been making music for the last 70 years and it’s just getting started. Why get the “vintage homage redo” when you can just have The Real Deal?!

  • Great shape. No issues.  A beautiful 65 year old hard to find Vintage Zildjian Light Complex 19”!
