Zildjian K Constantinople 18-inch Crash

General

The Zildjian Company is the most famous cymbal manufacturer in the world, and with good reason. Their products are always of the highest quality and they have an incredibly wide range of different sounding cymbals so you can find the perfect Zildjian cymbal for every situation. K family cymbals get their name from the man who developed their sound in 19th century Turkey- Kerope Zildjian – and the K Constantinople line's complex hammering techniques, perfected in the Zildjian Sound Lab, allow for cymbals that have an enormous dynamic range.

K Constantinople 18-inch Crash

The Constantinople series is all about recreating the classic K sound and providing an incredible dynamic range. Zildjian now uses a special hammering technique for this 18-inch cymbal, to imbue it with more dark overtones and allow it to open up quicker than before. The new pin lathe that has been added to both the top and bottom of the cymbal provides an additional tonal groove, which enhances the sound and adds complexity, while also giving this cymbal the vintage look it deserves.

The 18-inch K Constantinople crash has a beautifully dark sound with a subtle, smooth decay and a fast, rich response that allows it to live up to the reputation of the K cymbals of old.
