Zildjian identification

Loading...

Hey... I found these for sale. the seller says they are vintage "K Zildjians" that have a "TRIXON" stamp also (which I thought did only exist on Avedis cymbals). They also are supposed to have a Cymbalsmith's signature inside the bell...

These are the only two pics i could get unfortunately... 20" Ride and a pair of 13" Hats...

Maybe someone can help out with only those two pics....

The first cymbal shown is a Turkish K.

The 2nd one is an old A. As far as I am aware the only Zildjians that were also stamped with the Trixon name were Avedis Zildjians. K. Zildjian never had any connection to Trixon.

Ahh, thanks for the reply Drumaholic, much appreciated. Bowing

Somehow the hammering/lathing pattern on the ride (2nd pic) looked dodgy to me.

The first picture shows one cymbal of the 13" HH pair. the asking price is pretty low for an old K HH, i'll keep you posted... Excited

Good. You might end up getting a good deal.
