- This is the K Light Ride we wished Zildjian made!
- One of the most beautiful cymbals you will find….
- Or actually not find!
- I’ve seen 1 other of these in my life. A 2 foot Istanbul 70s Nostalgia Ride.
- This is the end of the road for luscious, glowing warm. This thing makes a K Ride feel like a Z Custom Power Ride.
- Incredibly hand crafted with gorgeous Hand Hammering throughout.
- As many of you may recall, the Nostalgia Series was similar to the Mel Lewis Series - back when Agop and Mehmet got along. And that’s what it sounds like!
- This beauty has all the golden glowing warmth of the famous Nostalgia Series but being the 70s version the bell is a bit lower giving it a hint more warmth, darkness and control.
- 2810 grams. Terrific woody stick attack on top with a golden wash that remains mellow and controlled but has a pinch of complexity complements of all that hand hammering.
- Plays like a Thin to Medium Thin Glowing 24”.
- Extremely crashable. Very warm. Cuts well when laid in to but remains extremely responsive at a pin drop volume.
- Perfect for any music - very quiet to loud settings - when you crash on the edge this 24” it really opens up and can handle itself in louder gigs. Great for jazz, recording, and singer songwriter gigs but not at all limited to those.
- Immaculate Condition. No issues. Played for the demo video and that’s it! A gorgeous Istanbul that is extremely rare.
- If you’re not familiar with these cymbals, this is a great one to start with. But I warn you, everything else will feel STIFF after playing this.
- An absolute steal for the instrument it is! The only one I have.
