- Here’s a legend in its own time!
- This was one of the best and DRIEST K Constantinoples made - so of course Zildjian discontinued it.
- The famous Zildjian K Constantinople HI BELL DRY RIDE 22” in fantastic condition!
- Fantastic stick attack with smokiness baked in.
- Aged and mellowed over 2 decades! This was a hard to find Zildjian for the brief window they were being produced.
- Check out the alternating wide band gold and natural lathing.
- Weighing in at a lovely 2610 grams this Killer K plays like a Thin or Medium Thin DRY Ride. An actual DRY K Constantinople!! Imagine that!
- And Zildjian called it on this Big 22". It's DRY. But what's cool is that the ensuing wash is slightly nastier and more complex than most dry rides. The initial stick attack is prominent and definitely dark in tone and the proceeding wash has more of an "AAAHHH" to it than most dry rides do.
- Controlled yet with a complexity to it. As the overtones swim around, they never eclipse the initial attack. The bell is semi-integrated and cuts nicely without being overbearing-it's perfect for "the latin thing."When you crash on this Big 22", it reveals it's darkest side-much nastier than a regular K.
- More complex, more organic, yet still semi-dry.
- It can easily be a BIG Dry Crash. Perfect for accents while riding. The wash decays very quickly for a big 22"
- This beauty reminds me of a THIN Hi-Definition Ride, and way more crashable.
- No issues. Gorgeous deep golden patina starting to build. Hard to find. Collectible. Perfect for absolutely any style.
- One of Zildjian’s best cymbals from their best series.
- Collectible.
