- Well, this just makes me happy!
- A truly Hand Hammered two footer!! It’s the only one I’ve seen! This is what you hoped the Zildjian K LIGHT RIDE was.
- And this can easily be your main ride cymbal. It’s wonderfully complex and very musical.
- A true LIGHT 24”!
- This 24” is reminiscent of those HUGE Zildjians you would see in the background of a 1940s or 1950s Zildjian ad with Papa Joe Jones. Just a massive wavy hand-hammered cymbal lying against the wall and you’re like “what the hell is that?!!”
- Well, this rare 24” celebrates that era and vibe!
- It’s even LOOKS 80 years old with its Vintage Copper-hued BRUSHED Finish.
- Ultra Rare HUGE Bosphorus 24” Vintage Brushed - Style Syncopation SW Ride in Immaculate shape!
- Unique.
- As you can see, this stunning 24” has a lightly lathed or brushed massive plain, the last outer half-inch is golden.
- Gorgeous ball-peen style deep hand hammering throughout! It incredible.
- The result is a cymbal that has all the wonderful light and complex tone of a truly Hand Hammered cymbal with the focus and drier attack of a sparsely lathed cymbal.
- Overall semi-DARK timbre and very usable! Extremely organic and complex.
-
With a weight of exactly 2900 grams, this MASSIVE 24” Bosphorus Syncopation SW plays like a great, slightly dry, complex-sounding Medium Thin to Medium Light Ride or CRASH RIDE. The weight gives it a good attack while the Old-World Turkish craftsmanship lends its telltale complexity to the mix.
- Remarkably responsive at low to medium level volumes! Crash on it and it ROARS like the levee just broke - more than capable in loud to very loud settings.
- Organic but still with a glow. Subtle but lively, responsive with a smooth complexity.
- The 24” size supplies myriad options for drawing tone out of this instrument. It’s like playing a grand piano!
- A gorgeous Main Ride or Massive Crash Ride.
- Plays like an orchestral gong with mallets!
- MESMERIZING to watch wobble and float about.
- This is a unique instrument! It’s a calling card. It can easily be your main ride or roaring crash! Or make it sizzle for that 1940s vibe!
