INV 9567 The 20" K. Zildjian Constantinople Hi Bell Thin Low Ride is a rare, expressive ride cymbal prized for its dark tone, excellent stick definition, and uniquely projecting bell. It’s a standout in the Constantinople line, especially for jazz and nuanced playing styles. 🥁 Key Features & Sound Profile Bell Design: Modeled after a 100-year-old orchestral cymbal bell, the Hi Bell offers a larger surface area, producing a broader frequency range and a clearer, more cutting bell tone than typical Constantinople rides. Weight & Feel: At around 2,067g, this Thin Low Ride version is on the lighter side, giving it plenty of give and crashability while maintaining excellent stick articulation. Pitch & Wash: The “Low” designation refers to its lower fundamental pitch and darker wash, making it ideal for subtle, complex textures in acoustic or low-volume settings. Articulation: Despite its thinness, it retains strong stick definition, especially when played with lighter touch or in jazz contexts.
