HUUUUUUUUURRAAAAAY!!!!

Check out these insanely great REAL DEAL Vintage Zildjian Istanbul K 14” HIHATS. Hand crafted at the Zildjian factory in Turkey over half a century ago! 🦄. Part of cymbal history and lore.  

The end of the road for stunning, dry, complex hihats!  

That somehow remain smooth!!!!

968 over 992 grams. 

Famous and rare, iconic Zildjian Istanbul K signatures under BOTH bells! Hand Hammered throughout. 

Matching Istanbul Zildjian Stamps. These are THIN weights but not ultra thin, so the CHICK is fantastic and they project quite well! Very satisfying feel to play! 

Sound like they were plucked right off Art Blakey’s kit. They have that magic elixir of Dry and Complex. Organic and yet smooth. Just magnificent sounding hihats. 

No cracks or dents. Typical mild wear around the top center hole. Glorious half-century-old golden patina mellows them to perfection. 

These cymbals are to be celebrated for their history, cultural musical significance, artistry, AND sound.

Forged in Turkey, they’ve been making music for well over half-a-century and they have much more to say.

Absolutely stunning and for the price on some new Keropes, you can have the faberge egg!
