Paiste, Istanbul, Vintage Zildjian

[c.wulf]

Listing for a friend- serious buyers, please PM me for contact info. These cymbals are a part of an estate of a pro drummer who sadly passed away much too soon. My friend is selling them for the family and is willing to accept offers and open to discuss a discount on multiple cymbals sales. https://reverb.com/shop/michaels-gear-garage-868

Two different weights are given for #11 (Zildjian 20" with rivets) -- but either way, the sound is astonishing.

I see #11 as Paiste hats…is there two #11’s?

And let's not let the confusion distract -- this is an incredible collection! Very cool of you to help out with this work.

Digging the Agop 25th.

Yes! Sorry about that- I’ll let him know about Zildjian 11- I see it now! Haha!

Oh yeah- I was tempted as well!

Blank for me, too. Thought, because I'm in Europe, but even using VPN US.

I checked 2 of the Zildjian rides listed as 1946-53.....both of them were 1960's stamps....and priced like trans stamps.

I stopped looking after that. I don't think his skills are up to accurate Zildjian cymbal identification. I wonder where he got specific year ranges like "1960-1965"? He also has some reputed Rock Hats which he calls "1965-1969". The Rock family (hats, crashes, rides) came out in 1973

and those hats of his have 60s stamps. So do a number of other Rock cymbals which do have model ink. This is one of several lines of evidence that the 60s stamps (both short and tall style) were in factory use until 1976.

Maybe he knows Paiste cymbals better. I haven't looked.

 

[zenstat]

Oops. Couldn't help myself. I looked at one of the Paiste cymbals which has the A Zildjian CO stamp.

Note that none of these inaccurate identifications of stamps should be taken as criticism of the seller as a person, nor of the cymbals as cymbals. We're not philatelists. Interested buyers are buying cymbals not stamps.

Ah…well, I don’t know the stamps either, and don’t know where he got his info. If you want to reach out to him, via Reverb, to help, I’m sure he’d appreciate it.

 

[hawker]

No offense...but the playing of these cymbals is so minimal that it's almost impossible to make any informed buying decision. But good luck to the estate.

No offense taken; I didn't create the ads.

I think you're getting more than most ads on Reverb, no? For me, I just need the pitch and characteristics, and that is provided by what Michael took the time to record, but I get it, if it's not good enough for everyone.

Did you message him to ask for an additional soundfile or video? Michael is a very nice chap, so if you're a serious buyer, I'm sure he would accommodate. If you're simply browsing, and commenting on the lack of your specific needs, in the ways of advertising, please don't bother messaging him.

I purchased two of the cymbals from the estate. Michael is a very nice guy and the cymbals arrived just as described. I’m very happy with the transaction. Just wanted to pass along the positive vibes.

Thanks for saying so! Glad it worked out!
