Frequently Asked Questions...
What is a modern cymbal comparable to an old 50s Zildjian Avedis?
I recently cracked one (identical to this: http://cgi.ebay.com/22-50s-Zildjian-Avedis-Ride-Cymbal-BLOCK-STAMP-/270755611985?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3f0a4ac551)
I'm not really interested in purchasing another used cymbal, so I'm trying to find what would be the modern "equivalent" to this cymbal. I rarely use it as a traditional ride, I ride the crash and use the bell - both of which are perfect for the music I play.
Any insight is appreciated, thank you!
