USED ZILDJIAN / 70s CANADA K 14inch 1174/1124g HIHATS Canada K Hi-Hat Cymbal [08]

These K cymbals were produced from the end of the 1970s to the beginning of the 1980s and were made by the Giljan Canada factory.
The Canadian factory was later to become the Sabian brand, and its characteristics can be strongly felt in the products from this period.
The shape is slightly thicker and flatter than those made at the Turkish factory, and the hammer marks are narrower and deeper, making the cymbals thicker but lower in pitch, and while the tone is a little harder, it has warm and rich overtones and a core strength that does not get buried even in full bands.

The top is a little thicker than the pairing.
It is slightly thicker in the 1100g range, so it has a sense of power and solidity, but the tone is deep, dark, and rich, as is typical of Canadian K. The foot-closed sound is also solid.
The foot close sound is also strong, so it is recommended for big bands, and of course, it has a calm sound that fits well with pop music as well.

The cymbal has some signs of age and use, such as overall dullness and stains.
The condition is commensurate with its age as a vintage cymbal.
There are no chips or distortion on the edges, and the cymbals are still in good condition for use.
