For your listening pleasure is this truly wonderful early 10″ Zildjian A cymbal from the 1930s. These paper thin early Zildjian A splashes were favorites of the pioneering greats such as Gene Krupa and Buddy Rich. This one is undersized measuring closer to 9-1/4″ and is not perfectly round which is typical of the era. It has a beautiful, low, breathy crash that response in an instant with a musicality that can only be found in these thin old A’s. No cracks, flea bites, or keyhole and the typical waviness these paper thin cymbals are known for. The rarely seen bottom side signature is even still present. Weighs in at a delightfully paper thin 176 grams. Enjoy
