The reimagined Kerope harkens back to its namesake intermediate stamp Turkish K’s, its tones steeped in a sound born over a half century ago. Kerope cymbals breathe into music a texture and complexity that no other cymbal can, carrying a richness and warmth that will strike a chord within even the most discerning of sonic connoisseurs, who for decades have sought after the old “K” sound.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe degree of meticulous manufacturing and detailed craftsmanship dedicated to this series is unsurpassed. The entire bow is hammered into shape, undergoing over four times the hammering of a K Constantinople, reminiscent of old-world techniques used to make these K’s through the mid 20th century. A lathing pattern including a traditional deep pin lathe that boldens stick sound and favors brush work, a unique waxing process and twice as many testing processes for sound are all critical to achieving the iconic qualities of Kerope that ring true to its storied past.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKerope ride cymbals put an unrivaled touch in drummers’ hands that instantly inspires play, with a beautiful warm, complex crash that delights performer and audience alike. The stick attack speaks with clarity without being overwhelmed by the wash, coalescing in a perfect blend with the band. All Keropes feature the signature in the bell, as was tradition in the original cymbal, of the one and only Craigie Zildjian – the only cymbal in our catalog that bears her name.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe long sought-after Zildjian K sound\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSits under drummers’ hands with unprecedented touch and control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWarm, complex rides that give dark textures and rich complexity when crashed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePerfect balance of stick and wash\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTraditional deep pin lathe complements brush work\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpecial detailing with Craigie Zildjian’s signature and etched Zildjian logo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Zildjian","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42705412718671,"sku":"KER0122","price":1579.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0054\/9466\/9382\/files\/22-Kerope_medium-thin-high_top.webp?v=1742222971","url":"https:\/\/shop.musicredone.com\/products\/zildjian-ker0122-kerope-medium-thin-high-ride-cymbal-22","provider":"RedOne Music Canada","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
