UNIQUE Zildjian K CONSTANTINOPLE PROTOTYPE 22” HI Bell Medium Thin Low BUT FULLY LATHED! 2472 g

Well this is a UNIQUE Zildjian!  The only one I’ve ever seen like this in 22”. As a matter of fact, it’s a PROTOTYPE of an already rare Zildjian K Constantinople.

Zildjian K CONSTANTINOPLE HI BELL MEDIUM THIN LOW…BUT….

It’s FULLY LATHED! Yes, I know!  I’m tingling all over too!! 

As many of you cymbalholics may know, the HI Bell K Constantinoples were made for a brief period and they are magnificent cymbals, but they were all HYBRID style or dual style lathing.

Well…meet the WARMER, more complex FULLY LATHED Prototype version! And in the generous 22” size too! This Prototype sports the golden K Constantinople lathing across the entire surface, giving it a more consistent tone and more LIGHT and lively wash.

Imagine the standard HI Bell but a bit warmer, breathier, complex and with a bit more fullness to it. That’s this one-off K Cons.

The weight is a THIN 2472 grams. And as the name suggests the bell is HIGH coming off the plain of the cymbal. 

When you crash on this beautiful 22” it lets loose a broad explosion - perfect for accents while riding. Makes you jump.

Light. Airy. Complex with a breathy, organic golden tone. Still has that famous K Cons warm stick attack on top. 

Beautiful shape. Aged and mellowed over 20 years.
The cataloged K Constantinople HI BELL is a rarity.

THIS thing is a unicorn!
