Product Description
Dark and classic, with modern clarity. The finest qualities of Constantinople passed down through the ages. Crash it for rock, ride it for jazz. The Constantinople 20'' medium-thin ride is buttery and soft to ride on, yet explosive when crashing. Dark and washy undertones protrude every delicate stroke, but they are well controlled and don't ring out. The bell tone is incredibly full, dark and clear, with an industrial-like sound. Perfect if you want real impact.
The low profile of the 20'' Constantinople ride ensures a lower-pitch timbre, with a controlled sustain that's ideal for playing fast passages. Although it has its roots in jazz, the K Zildjian Constantinople ride has a huge bell tone and is super crashable, making it great for jazz, rock and everything in-between.
Key Features
- Low profile ride with low-pitched dark sound
- Well-controlled, dark and washy undertones
- Explosive hiss when crashing, soft and buttery when riding
- Discover classic Constantinople sound with modern K clarity
K Constantinople
The K Constantinople series associates its sound with the Zildjian cymbals made in Turkey during the first half of the 20th Century. Resurfacing in the 50s and 60s with bebop era drummers, "Old Ks" have laid the ground work for the new K Constantinople series.
Skilled artisans have hand lathed this 20'' Medium Thin Ride cymbal using old-style cutting tools and techniques to retain pits and other surface impurities that modern finishing processes remove. This process allows the original tonal quality to be retained and untainted.
The Zildjian K Constantinople 20" Medium Thin Ride Cymbal is a high performance ride cymbal used by many professional drummers such as Pablo Bencid (The Either Orchestra), Keith Carlock (Toto), Wayne Salzmann II (Eric Johnson) and Nils Tornqvist (Miike Snow).
