For drummers chasing that rich, smoky vintage sound, the Zildjian Kerope 22in Medium Thin High Ride offers the perfect blend of tone, touch, and tradition. Handcrafted using time-honored techniques, it delivers warm, dark, and complex tones with a smooth sustain that melts effortlessly into any mix—especially in jazz, roots, and acoustic settings where musicality matters most. Its medium-thin weight responds quickly and feels soft under the stick, making it great for detailed ride work or gentle swells. Each Kerope is made in small batches, giving every cymbal its own voice—no two are exactly alike. The unlathed bell adds just the right amount of definition when needed, all while preserving the cymbal’s vintage vibe. If you’re looking for depth, control, and individuality in your sound, this ride delivers.
