Hey guys! I have a question about my Zildjans. Im trying as hard as i can to get pics up and really am working on it. Let me give you as detailed as I can desription of them as i can.

They all have no logos on them and never came with any.

They All have this STAMPED into them " ( Zildjian Logo in Unusual Writng Im am not aware of)
AVEDIS
Zildjian CO
Genuine
Turkish Cymbals
made in the U.S.A."

They are over 25 years old.

They sound retty good and crisp still.

As soon as i can get ANY pics i will put them up, here is one i have edited already to give you an idea....

Peace
AGR

mind drummer, thank you so much for those links. I've been putting together my own Zildjian timeline from scattered info, and those two links fill in so many gaps. Thanks again, bro.
