Zildjian A flat ride

Posts: 7 Threads: 4

Hi, a bit of a boring question but can anybody give me some information about my flat ride please?

It is a 20" ziljian A flat ride and i would like to know what year this cymbal was made and any information you can give me,

It looks like the print may have been taken off but i could be wrong and probably am. is this vintage or is it just second hand?

Thanks a lot

Hollow logo from Zildjian dates it to the early 70's, that ride is used mostly by jazz guys because of the full wash of the cymbal. Don't clean it, especially that hollow logo on the bottom. Vintage differs in many opinions, depending on how old something is to be vintage. 100-150 ballpark, possibly more.

For what it's worth

Its better to have people think you're an idiot, than to open your mouth and prove them wrong, unless you doubt yourself then speak away....
