I Need a drum expert!! Last viewed: 2 hours ago

Loading...

I am new here and would like to take the time to say hello to everybody! Now down to business, I bought a cymbal Sabian in brand from an older gentleman in his early 70's whos brother had passed away and left him all of his drum gear, the man decided to sell all of the gear and i just happened to pick up the Cymbals, upon getting the cymbals home i noticed a signature on the back of it and it read Bob Zildjian (founder of Sabian Cymbals), so after doing some research and comparing the autograph to ones i had found on google i am 99.9% sure that this is Bob's autograph, sadly to hear bob passed away this year, he was a great cymbal maker.I would just like to know if this cymbal holds any significant value, I think its really awesome to have such a gem in my possession but i have no use for it and would like to see it in the hands of a collector who would appreciate this cymbal. Can someone please help me?Help2

Do you think that i need to post my question in a different section or make a call to sabian?

No need to post in a different section. A collector should be willing to pay a fair sum for that. Don't think anybody would want to play it. It's a piece of history, but kinda hard to put an exact value on it. I guess it depends on how many he signed.

Congratulations.
