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.\u0026lt;\/p\u0026gt;\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u0026lt;p\u0026gt;The 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.\u0026lt;\/p\u0026gt;\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u0026lt;p\u0026gt;Kerope 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.\u0026lt;\/p\u0026gt;\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u0026lt;ul\u0026gt;\n\t\u0026lt;li\u0026gt;Higher-profile ride with a prominent curvature that sits in higher frequencies when riding, and more explosive crash with short sustain\u0026lt;\/li\u0026gt;\n\t\u0026lt;li\u0026gt;The long sought-after Zildjian K sound\u0026lt;\/li\u0026gt;\n\t\u0026lt;li\u0026gt;Sits under drummers’ hands with unprecedented touch and control\u0026lt;\/li\u0026gt;\n\t\u0026lt;li\u0026gt;Warm, complex ride that gives dark textures and rich complexity when crashed\u0026lt;\/li\u0026gt;\n\t\u0026lt;li\u0026gt;Traditional deep pin lathe complements brush work\u0026lt;\/li\u0026gt;\n\t\u0026lt;li\u0026gt;Special detailing with Craigie Zildjian's signature and etched Zildjian logo\u0026lt;\/li\u0026gt;\n\u0026lt;\/ul\u0026gt;\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigher-profile ride with a prominent curvature that sits in higher frequencies when riding, and more explosive crash with short sustain\u003c\/li\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 ride that gives dark textures and rich complexity when crashed\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":52852193656943,"sku":"KER0122","price":1579.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0691\/2992\/8815\/files\/KER0122_c65fae0b-4823-43d5-ac4c-4ec9604c11be.jpg?v=1774560525","url":"https:\/\/sol-school-of-music-and-instrument-store-2.myshopify.com\/products\/zildjian-22-kerope-medium-thin-high-ride-cymbal-ker0122","provider":"Sol School of Music and Instrument Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
