Zildjian is a cymbal maker based in Norwell, Massachusetts, with roots going back to Istanbul in 1623. The A Series is the company's classic line and the one most drummers picture when they think of a Zildjian. This 18" crash is a 1970's piece, and cymbals from that era are generally dated by the stamp, since Zildjian had no date system until 1994. An 18" crash is a versatile size, quick enough for accents and full enough to ride through a louder passage, so it suits players in rock, pop, and just about any style that calls for a dependable crash.
This cymbal has seen decades of use and is ready to play. It weighs 1500g. It has slight keyholing at the mounting hole, and we found no other damage. Please check the photos and ask us anything you'd like to know before buying.
