- Very LIGHT and COMPLEX with a hint of dryness, HAND HAMMERED Early 1960s Vintage Zildjian 18” Sizzle Crash Ride.
- Wavy Hand Hammered surface with a beautiful golden hue! This particular 18” sounds incredible!
- Dark sounding with a LIGHT and AIRY wash, it’s aged and fairly focused when crashed upon - compliments of that 60 year old patina.
- Medium low profile gives it a darker, lower pitch than many 18s”. Hand Hammered.
- At 1497 grams this 18” plays like a Thin Light Complex SIZZLE with darker, drier leanings.
- Overall extremely responsive - airy, organic attack.
- Where this 18” really shines is the airy, LIGHT LIVELINESS it brings to a setup. This 18” Sizzle delivers a very warm but mellowed and aged darker SIZZLE tone.
- Crashes like a dream!
- Great spread while still having the classy control of an 18” with a great patina.
- It was made over 60 years ago. And it SOUNDS like a cymbal made over 60 years ago.
- Modern Zildjians are great - but they don’t do THIS.
-
No cracks or issues. Typical light wear around the center hole typical for a 6 decade old cymbal.
- Primed for 4 rivets and currently outfitted with all 4 rivets.
-
Sounds awesome - very 1958 vibes.
- Don’t spend more on the new faux vintage ones.
- It’s cheaper and more fun to play the original.
