I've come across this 22" Zildjian Ride, and while it's medium to heavy in weight, I'm perplexed by the logo.
It appears to be hand engraved! Can't say I've ever seen this. Is it possible someone tried to fake it? I pulled a 70's 20" ride I have and held it right next to it, logo for logo. The factory logo is so straight and linear. This is just kind if hand done. Roughly the same size though.
Any input would be helpful. Logo's are hard to capture, but I did the best I could:
Looks like someone went way out of their way to attempt a forgery.
If your trying to con someone...that's the wrong logo to copy.
Now that's a first.

They have also chosen to copy the CO (80s) version with the large O in CO

Poorly done also!
Thanks for the info., and link. I pretty much suspected it to be a fake. When playing it, it just doesn't have the sound a vintage 22" Zildjian ride would have, in any weight.
