Is this 50s or 70s A Zildjian

Posts: 1017 Threads: 349

I listed this as a 1950's cymbal. But I have this inconvenient habit of trying to be honest ....

Please check this guy out?

One things for sure IMHO: it sounds too "fine" or sophisticated to not be 50s. That of course, is a HO!

That cymbal has a late 1950s Small Stamp. It passes these tests for not being a 70s:

It also passes the tests for a late 50s Small Stamp in terms of which parts are relatively bold.

See: http://black.net.nz/avedis/avedis-gallery.html#small

In terms of hammering and lathing it also fits within the range of variation for late 50s early 60s.
