20" K. Zildjian New Stamp Sizzle Ride 1998gr
This 20" K.Zildjian New Stamp Ride (made in Istanbul) is a perfect example of how all these K's are different and have their own character and story to tell. This one is pretty stiff and gives the cymbal a lot bright and complex over tones in the mid range. The lathing grooves are also very fine, so it's almost like playing a brilliant cymbal with this one. A former owner installed 2 rivets in the cymbal to give it a bit more of that 60s jazz vibe, which I think works pretty nice for this cymbal, so I left it as is.
The center hole has been drilled into a bigger hole, either to fix some hairline cracks in the center hole, or to make sure it fit's all modern stands. It's a bit wide now for most stands, but at least now that's one less thing to worry about.
