Is there something wrong with these cymbals?

Cuz if not I might grab them, they look sweet!

Thoughts?

They're K Constantinoples, and would have originally been sold as marching cymbals at that very heavy weight. They'll be much heavier than your average old K hats, but would still probably sound good...cutting, lots of metal there. K Cons that were meant as drumset cymbals, or hi hats, were paper thin, and have that very vintage 20's and 30's sound. The more desirable old K hi hat sound is found in K Zildjian Istanbuls from the 50's through the early 70's.

Thanks,

Bill

So, that weight is really heavy then?

These wouldn't be good for alternative and jazz

I would imagine then?

No...

They're better suited for Heavy Metal music.

Lol, well it's probably true.. but I don't know what

a light weight is for hats.

Wasn't there a cymbal weight calculator online somewhere?

I know a good thin ride is like between 1800-2000 grams or something

but as far as hats go, i'm clueless..

This one was shared with me by a fellow forum member who is very much "in the know".

He stressed it is only a guide.

It works for me, according to this calculator the hats in question are med/hvy bottom and med top.
