For this series, this 2764 gram 22” K Custom is a fantastic blend of strong stick attack mixed with a gorgeous dark and slightly complex tone.
- These Early K Customs have a different tone.
- Famously Lathed top, unlathed Brilliant finish underside, and that gives this K Custom Medium a terrific stick attack. Half lathed and half unlathed. A perfect balance of attack and wash.
- Being the 22” this is cymbal is much darker and lower pitched than the smaller 20” brother. These 22s” are not that easy to find.

- If you want a K that has a terrific cutting attack but remains dark and smooth with a light earthy-ness, here you are.
- No issues. Aged magnificently over 30 years. No need to spend $530 on a big box store Zildjian and then wait 30 years for it to mellow.
