Dark and classic, with modern clarity. The finest qualities of Constantinople passed down through the ages. Crash it for rock, ride it for jazz. The Constantinople 20'' medium-thin ride is buttery and soft to ride on, yet explosive when crashing. Dark and washy undertones protrude every delicate stroke, but they are well controlled and don't ring out. The bell tone is incredibly full, dark and clear, with an industrial-like sound. Perfect if you want real impact.

The low profile of the 20'' Constantinople ride ensures a lower-pitch timbre, with a controlled sustain that's ideal for playing fast passages. Although it has its roots in jazz, the K Zildjian Constantinople ride has a huge bell tone and is super crashable, making it great for jazz, rock and everything in-between.
