Zildjian K Constantinople 22inch Bounce Ride

Derringers Music are pleased to present the Zildjian 22 inch K Constantinople Bounce Ride Cymbal.

The K Constantinople Bounce Ride is the result of a collaboration with jazz artist Kenny Washington, and recreates the specs of an old, classic K gifted to him in the 1970's by late jazz great Mel Lewis. While replicating the higher curvature and narrower, wider spaced lathing style, a new cup design was created to best resemble that of Kenny's old K. Extra 'cluster' hammering, typically found in orchestral cymbals and placed around the cymbal in eight unique clusters, gives the cymbal a lower drone and just enough trash and 'dirt'.

This medium thin ride produces a pitch with plenty of wash and sustain that rides over the band and cuts through most small-to-big band settings.

K Constantinoples are hand-lathed by skilled artisans using old-style cutting tools. Pits and other surface impurities, that modern finishing processes remove, are retained, preserving the original tonal quality.
