  • Well, you can’t ask much more from a cymbal than this:

  • Very Dark, ultra buttery smooth, super warm with a terrific woody stick definition, blurring edges, stunning crashability, high bell, Hand Hammered and made when BEBOP was invented. 

  • Literally. 

  • This is a slice an American instrument making history - Zildjian USA was 15 years old when this 22” was made. And you can tell because it sounds like it was pulled off a Charlie Parker recording. 

  • And Zildjian just released a few of these cymbals - for $2000. 
  • This is a THIN 1940s Vintage Zildjian Trans Stamp 22” and it’s one of the nicest sounding cymbals you will hear. 

  • Guaranteed.  This is the end of the road for the Real Deal Light Ride or Thin Crash Ride 22”. 

  • Telltale golden era Zildjian wavy plain Hand Hammering. Mellowed golden brown 8-decade old patina. 

  • Dark and organic. Ultra warm with a light Hand Hammered smokiness.  

  • This is the cymbal all these companies keep striving to be.  But this 22” just is.

  • The metal has a soft pliable feel that only Father Time bestows. 

  • At ONLY 2646 grams this is one of the THINNER and most crashable Vintage 22s” you will find. 
  • It’s so Light and buttery it plays like it already has rivets in it. 

  • Incredible shape for 80 years old. 

  • It’s inspiring to play an 8 decade THIN hand made Zildjian 22” like this.

  • It’s not just the sound - it’s the craft, the music, the standard, the history.  All of it.
