i recently acquired this 26" Zildjian Ride from a relative who's had it stored away for quite some time. i was wondering if anyone could shed some light on this cymbal. i haven't had a chance to weigh it yet, but it seems like it maybe rare. thanks.
26" Zildjian Medium Ride
worthless. but i have a good price on metal scrap. so if you send it to me i will send back a coupon for a free whopper..... id say you got somethin there as long as she not too heavy. oh yeah it says medium! whats it sound like?
It looks like a 70's stamp but was probably made earlier then 70's. How's it sound?
I think the ink stamp is cool.
26" Rides don't necessarily sound 'big'. I think maybe their forte is stick definition. If you decide you don't want it, PM me; I'd be interested.
Best.

nice..
the biggest I have is a 24"..the 26" with the embossed stamp is a early 70s..
is there any ink logo on it that says Zildjian (in big writting)?
or look closely to see if it was lightly sanded away..
otherwise..it looks like an early 70s to me..
they weren't known to make big big cyms in the 50s/ early/mid60s
do u have a cym case for it..?..lolol
great bell & usually crashable..
but if you check along the edge ...you'll find the sweet spot..
