Real Deal VINTAGE Zildjian THIN ISTANBUL K HIHATS 14” 777 968 g Dry Complex Incredible!

HOORAY!!!

Check out these insanely great REAL DEAL Vintage Zildjian Istanbul K 14” HIHATS. Some of the best you’ll find! 🦄

The end of the road for stunning, smooth, dry, complex hihats!  

Check out the gram weights: 777 over 968.

Famous cryptic and iconic matching Signature under both bells. Hand Hammered throughout.

Matching Istanbul K Stamps - and my favorite part…the Top is stamped “Medium” and the Bottom is stamped “Medium Heavy.” That’s some old-timey tickety-two weight stamps right there! Because these are neither - they’re THIN - like very thin New Beat weights, that’s why the  CHICK is so satisfying.

Sound like they were plucked right off Art Blakey’s kit. They have that magic elixir of Dry and Complex. Organic and yet smooth. Just magnificent sounding hihats. No issues. Glorious half-century-old golden patina mellows them to perfection.

These cymbals are to be celebrated for their history, cultural musical significance, artistry, AND sound.

Forged in Turkey, they’ve been making music for well over half-a-century and they have much more to say.
