  • Tight crisp attack, dark, controlled with a light percolating shimmer on top! Beautiful light crystalline glassiness. 
  • That’s exactly how this specific Zildjian K Custom Dark Flat Top 20” Ride sounds. So dark and low it could even pass as a 22”. 

  • And this particular one has a beautiful semi-dry stick attack.  It’s aged beautifully the last 25 years. 

  • No need to guess - year can LISTEN to it.  Don’t fly blind and buy a stock photo big box store question mark! And that guess will cost you $500.  
  • As many of you know the absence of a bell controls the overtones and volume in a Flat Ride, and that is exactly the case of this 20 year old, mellowed out K Custom.  It’s clean. And chilled out.  

  • Weighing in at a lovely 2314 grams, and of course, being a Flat Ride, this 20" delivers a fantastic, tight, and very focused dark and mellow chime-like attack. 

  • Pinpoint, silvery stick attack with a darker, medium low pitched wash and tone. A pinch glassy, one pinch woody. 
  • This particular K Custom Flat has a light glassy shimmer to it, like the Paiste 602 Flat, but darker and with a bit more breathiness. Outfitted with one lone rivet that dances at the edge. 

  • Gorgeous. Naturally darkened and dry. 

  • No issues. Overall clean for its age  with a natural patina spots starting to building up.  

  • A Perfect foil for a full ride or dry ride.

  • This one is very smooth with a great drier stick attack. And it’s not $500 for a guess at tone.
