A stunning 75 year old Vintage Zildjian Hand Hammered 22” 1950s Ride or Crash - it’s amazing at both.

Forged when “Clifford Brown and Max Roach” was a new recording. That’s inspiring to play.

Telltale golden era Zildjian Hand Hammering and bell, the alloy has softened and mellowed over the last 7 decades. This specific gem has a deep flanged edge that lends a terrific complexity - Bill Stewart - esque. 

A beautiful blend of bright and dark, stick definition and light airy wash. It all comes together quite musically under a rounded over robust bell that cuts like a modern cymbal without the brutishness.

And at only 2677 grams a swipe at the edge ushers in a generous and full crash accent.

Does everything.

No issues except the jealousy hurled at you from other drummers. Why pay more for the modern “vintage vibes”. Just get the original! 

A hard to find piece that’s to be celebrated for its history and musicality! Playable. Collectible.
