  • This is a standout cymbal in the Zildjian catalog, which is why of course they've discontinued it. Dammit, Zildjian!

  • Fortunately, you need not pine away for the lost super dry and slightly complex tone you sought. I happen to have right here... A BEAUTY THAT'S AGED 24 YEARS AND MELLOWED EXQUISITELY and you can hear it so you can buy with confidence:

  • Zildjian K Custom Dry Light Ride in fantastic condition. 

  • Very Jack DeJohnette vibe on this. And this one is fairly thin at 2297 grams. 

  • Where the Dry Ride can sometimes be super heavy and dead, the Dry Light leaves enough breathing room in for a subtle light, complex, airiness in the wash. But make no mistake, it is indeed DRY.

  • And for this series, THIS 2297 gram one is definitely DRY and aged. This 20” is all about definition. 

  • One fascinating feature about this cymbal that apparently is scandalous is that this K is indeed a MINI CUP! Take a look at the Bell. That no doubt contributes to the beautiful control and quick decay this magnificently hammered 20" exudes. 

  • Huge wavy, golf-ball style deep hammering overlaid with the K Custom smaller ball-peen style hammering. 

  • Famous raw and unlathed. 

  • A true Very Dry Ride with a pinch of complexity that apparently you just can't get from Zildjian these days. No issues.  extremely clean, especially for being nearly quarter of a century old.
