For Sale or Trade: Vintage 13" Zildjian hi-hats (Made in Canada)
From the info I can find online, I think these are from the early/mid-1970s, when Zildjian imported cymbals from Turkey and finished them in Canada (Note: I stand to be corrected on this). Both are stamped "Avedis Zildjian, Genuine Turkish Cymbals, Made in Canada". These stamp indents do not have the three dots in the logo.
I've uploaded some photos here;

These are in good condition - no cracks. I've asked around and I've gotten varying ballpark pricing estimates on these.
I'd consider selling or trading for a decent 20" or 22" Ride. I like the sound range in Sabian's "Raw Bell Dry" and "Jazz" rides, as well as Zildjian's "Ping" and "Sweet" rides.
Please email me if you're interested.
P.S.: This is a great website Matt. Great job and interesting sounds here. If I win the lottery tomorrow night, you'll be a happy man because I'll be buying some of your cymbals!
