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. This 20″ size features slightly smaller hammer clusters and a slightly higher pitch than the 22″, with plenty of wash and sustain that rides over the band and cuts through most small-to-big band settings.
Zildjian 20” K Constantinople Bounce Rides
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’.
