Here's a RARE Vintage Zildjian....A TERRIFIC SOUNDING THIN CRASH OR LIGHT LEFT SIDE CRASH RIDE!!It has a Medium Thin weight but because it's an 80 year old 1940s Hand Hammered Zildjian, it PLAYS Light and airy....and why not? It's aged and mellowed 80 years!1483 grams is just enough weight to give it a Light Ride feel that's STILL Crashable! Sure you can spend $440 on a new Zildjian K Constantinople Crash Ride. Or $40...0 for one of those new fangled "vintage vibe" AVEDIS Series....
But that's just RIDICULOUS!
Neither will sound like this damn near 80 year old ORIGINAL!!
A Vintage Zildjian TRANS STAMP Beauty...aged, super played-in, soft and controlled.Right out of the SWING ERA. For REAL! Soft, hand hammered and a bit malleable.
Offered up for your immense pleasure is this RARE Hand Hammered Vintage Zildjian 1940s Trans Stamp 18" CRASH LIGHT RIDE Cymbal that is in simply Excellent Condition!!  Check out the pictures! LISTEN TO THE SOUND FILE FOR THIS EXACT ITEM HERE! 
Remarkably there are NOnicks, dents or dings on this rare Zildjian. It's in GREAT SHAPE with a lovely over half-century patina that has befriended it.  The center hole measures a pinch over .5". This cymbal has an amazing well-seasoned vibe--this is literally the TONE that made Zildjian famous.   And check out the Old School lathing and Hand Hammering--that ain't a modern Zildjian BABY! Look at the underside!
Playing a 70 to 80 year old Zildjian is a real JOY! I find it inspiring! Weighing in at a perfect 1483 grams,  this well over half century old Vintage Zildjian plays like a great THIN to Medium Thin Crash or mellow, AIRY Light Left Side Crash Ride!!  A perfect old school Light or Left Side Ride. It's got lovely, glowing, fairly COMPLEX vibe to it.  But being a smaller 18",   it's beautifully controlled! The tone is semi-dark, making this 18" extremely versatile! Again, this cymbal has a "played in" vibe to it, which is not surprisingly considering it is from the 1940s.Super Mellow. Light and AIRY. Over half a century naturally aged. Subtle glowing, sparkling stick attack with a smooth, controlled semi-dark and complex wash. Crashable. Rideable. And the 18" size keeps it contained.
If you want a Vintage tone then go to the source. THIS cymbal is THE SOURCE! And it's in GREAT SHAPE TOO!
Obviously this 1940s Vintage Zildjian 18" Light Crash Ride is a no brainer for jazz, swing, jump blues, hard bop, bebop, ballads, and soul.  But the fun sure as hell doesn't stop there. The subtle and mellow stick attack and organic vintage tone is perfect for old school early funk, Motown, rockabilly, early R&B, early rock 'n ' roll, country, pop, session work, LIVE and ANYTIME you need a Classic 1940s Vintage Zildjian complex and semi- dark, THIN Light Crash Ride that remains controlled. And if you're a collector, perch this beauty up alongside your vintage 40s or 50s tubs and welcome the serenity that will descend upon you. $440??? $400 for the modern ones just trying to IMITATE WHAT THIS CYMBAL ALREADY DOES???Ummmmmm....THIS CYMBAL is The ORIGINAL. FROM the 1940s.   Like Gene Krupa 1940s.
AND it's a great playing weight! 
So do yourself a favor and grab this gorgeous octogenarian 1940s Light and AIRY sounding Vintage Zildjian Hand Hammered Transition Stamp 1483 gram 18" Crash Ride Cymbal. And hang onto it!! It's in Excellent Condition!
