20” A Zildjian Light Ride CO Stamp [1982–1987] 2250g

A beautiful vintage A Zildjian Light Ride from the sought-after CO-stamp era, combining classic American craftsmanship with a wonderfully musical and versatile character.

Produced between approximately 1982 and 1987, this pre-loved 20” Light Ride represents a fascinating period in Zildjian history, when traditional Avedis cymbals offered a distinctive balance of brightness, warmth and responsiveness.

At 2250g, this example delivers clear, articulate stick definition over a warm, shimmering wash. Its relatively light construction allows the cymbal to open up naturally, making it equally attractive for expressive ride patterns and occasional crash accents.

A versatile vintage ride with plenty of personality.
