Zildjian K1016 20-inch K Constantinople Medium Ride Cymbal

Zildjian K1016 20-inch K Constantinople Medium Ride Cymbal has a stronger, more pronounced and defined significant stick sound with a little more articulation. Completely dry with a good degree of very pleasing overtones and wash. The traditional K Constantinople is the pinnacle of the Zildjian cymbal line, famous for its well-blended sound quality. Complicated hammering gives to the cymbal's unique sonic character and dark tones that can be at once cutting and stable. Carrying on cymbal-making techniques developed in the Zildjian Sound Lab, K Constantinople cymbals can range from complex to explosive. The K Constantinople cymbals deliver with the deep warm sound incorporated with Zildjian cymbals built in Turkey in the first half of the 20th Century. K's original resurfaced during the 1950s and 1960s in set-ups of bebop era leaders drummers like Elvin Jones. This K Constantinople's are perfectly hand-lathed by experienced artisans using old-style cutting tools.  Depressions and other surface contaminants, that modern finishing methods remove, are retained, maintaining the original tonal quality.
