K Instanbul question

Posts: 14 Threads: 1

Bought this 20" K back in the early seventies. It was rumored to have been owned by Elvin Jones originally and I've used it since on several top jazz recordings. Can anyone help as to time stamp year? Value?

I'd have to hear some sound clips. Maybe you can mention some of the top jazz recordings you've used it on, and I can peruse my collection and pull them out and have a listen, comparing it to my early 70s and before Elvin recordings...

I'm not trying to authenticate if Elvin used the cymbal or not-just trying to get an idea of what year time stamp it is. However , I've recorded the cymbal on many projects such as Miles Davis, Michelle Pettruciani, Paquito D'Rivera , Eddie Gomez etc.

That's a New Stamp from the 60's or 70's. Drumaholic should be able to narrow it down further. Currently worth in the range of $800 - $1200, depending on weight and soundfile.

Which albums? I'd love to hear it in action. It's a lovely-looking cymbal...
