Questions frequently asked
What kind of sound does the Zildjian K1014 Constantinople 20 inch suspended cymbal offer?
Its dark character is based on a low fundamental, a felted wash, and controlled projection. The stick definition remains clear, with a touch of dryness useful for keeping time.
Is this 20 inch cymbal suitable for jazz and studio use?
This model is suitable for jazz, pop, funk, soul, and studio settings. Its dark tone blends easily into the mix, while its medium sustain supports sensitive grooves.
Can it be used as a crash-ride?
The medium thin thickness allows for controlled crash-ride accents without excessive harshness.
What mounting is required for a 20 inch suspended cymbal?
The term 'suspended' indicates mounting on a standard cymbal stand. The cymbal is left free to oscillate to encourage vibration. No specific mounting accessory is mentioned in the provided specifications.
What is the advantage of the hammered bronze and traditional finish?
The hammered bronze produces rich partials and a dynamic response under the stick. The traditional finish preserves warmth in the spectrum and a natural rebound.
