ZILDJIAN K CONSTANTINOPLE HI BELL Medium Thin LOW 20” Ride Crash 2072 g Rare Hybrid! Sounds Amazing!

The famous Zildjian K Constantinople HI BELL MEDIUM THIN LOW RIDE in amazing condition. This beauty was only produced for a brief window and it was the ONLY HYBRID style K Cons they made.

A true Dry Complex K Constantinople - and in this case complex and controlled with a unique papery shimmer on top.

Alternating wide band gold and natural lathing on the inside that gives way to a fully lathed outer portion. All with the K Cons Armand Signature emblazoned on the underside.

Weighing in at a satisfying 2072 grams this Killer K plays like a Light Complex Semi-Dry Ride.

The initial stick attack is slightly dry - complements of that Medium Thin weight, but what’s amazing is that the ensuing wash is very light and airy and percolating.

Slightly controlled yet with a complexity to it. As the overtones swim around, they never eclipse the initial attack. The bell rises high off the plain and  is semi-integrated and cuts nicely without being overbearing.

When you crash on this Hybrid K Cons , it reveals its darkest side-much nastier than a regular K. It can easily be a BIG  Complex Crash. Perfect for accents while riding. The wash decays very quickly for 20”.

One of Zildjian’s best cymbals from their most famous series and one of the cleaner I’ve seen since the day they introduced them.

Matches perfectly with any K Constantinople, Custom Kerope or Vintage Zildjians. Rare. Collectible. Awesome sounding one.
