- Here's a pair of ultra-thin well over half-century-old Vintage Zildjians that sound like they were just plucked off a Red Garland Record.
- Both DRY and paper-y whispy! And these are some of the thinnest 13s” I have ever seen. And they’re some of the NICEST SOUNDING 13s” you’ll hear!
- 606 and 640 grams - that is really damn thin and a beautiful thing when you need a light whispy papery vintage tone - none of this modern stuff masquerading as "vintage" or "vintage reissue" nonsense.
- Hand hammered, wavy surface, ultra-thin weights - pre-Ringo.
- Light Papery whispy, very responsive, wonderfully complex tone with a subtle lively glow that percolates when opened. Dry attack. Very mellow chill - compliments of the last 70 years that have been quite good to them.
- Extremely dark and DRY - especially for 13s”.
- Beautiful CHUP tone when played with your foot. Golden glow when opened.
- They sound unbelievable under a mic and are fantastic for low to medium volume settings.
- No modern company makes this sound. This is THE SOUND.
- It's a joy to play cymbals that are 75 years old. No issues, great shape, gorgeous patina.
- The sound of jazz, soul, Motown, and early rock. Right here.
