Zildjian K & K Constantinople HiHat Cymbals

|
|
Labor of Love. Each Zildjian Cast Bronze cymbal is individually cast from the secret Zildjian alloy formulated over 380
years ago. Using finishing processes refined over centuries, craftsmen create the distinguished cymbals played by the world’s greatest drummers and percussionists.
Sound that's Always in Style. Legend. Legacy. The innovative cymbal work of Art Blakey, Elvin Jones, Tony Williams or any one of a
sweeping collection of the greatest drummers in history. They’ve all been fueled by K Zildjian cymbals. The deep, dry and shimmering sounds
developed by Kerope Zildjian in 19th Century Turkey continue to inspire drummers today. Elaborate hammering and lathing work our secret alloy
into versatile cymbals with a wide-ranging blend of high and low frequencies that can be mellow or intense. It all depends on how you play them.
K Constantinople cymbals speak with the dark warm sound associated with Zildjian cymbals made in Turkey in
the first half of the 20th Century. "Old Ks" first resurfaced during the 1950s and 1960s in set-ups of bebop era vanguard drummers like Elvin
Jones. All K Constantinoples are hand-lathed by skilled artisans using old-style cutting tools. Pits and other surface impurities, that
modern finishing processes remove, are retained, preserving the original tonal quality.
