A Garage sale
Chino,CA
three Zilds liying on the front yard of this nice house
a 17' and an 18' Hollow logo ("Special selection" ink stamp in the back)
a 16' (micro cracks on the edge) reads A Zildjian constantinople made in USA
Any comments and possible value are much appreciated
Their color doesnt look that different as with the camera flash
I paid $100 for the all of them...
Thanks!
70's hollow logo. Very good deal. Congrats!
great deal. good pickin
Awesome deal !!!
That's a great feeling coming up on a garage sale and seeing 3 kool Zildjians for 100 bones.
Cheers, Dave
Nice AZildjians, the constantinople is their 70s version of a brilliant finish cymbal. They are very nice, when not cracked. They are very balanced and were also sold in complete sets. I actually bought a Pearl set from the late 70s that had a complete A. Zildjian Constantinople set, 14/16/18/20/22. They were all very balanced cymbals, perhaps slightly more balanced than the average Avedis Zildjian. Some were made in Canada at their Meductic factory which later became Sabian.
Quite a few American Cons from the 70's are heavy weight........but I have seen a few that were thinner.........

Great good kid-o but be careful about posting this kind of information.The guys in black suits may throw a net over youband3
[COLOR="Green"]The 17" & 18" are worth about $80-90 each...the A.Const..really, almost nothing because of the cracks. It'd be worth about the same as the others had it no cracks.
Nice plucking.....[/COLOR]
