Zildjian Paper Thin Crashes

[b_vanduuren]

I own a fairly old 16in Zildjian Paper thin crash and i wanted to buy an 18in paper thin as well because they sound so incredible... i saw one in a shop in sydney about 2 years a go but i didnt want one back then and now i do but i cant find them anywhere. Not even on the zildjian website... does anyone know what has happened to them? I have a feeling they are now just todays Fast crashes as they are the only crashes i can find under the A line on the site which are of paper thin weight.. Can anyone help me?

Thanks

The A Zildjian & Cie Vintage Crashes are also Paper Thin, though not exactly what you're after.

Seems like you'll have to hit eBay I'm afraid.

so does this mean they are actually now discontinued? does anyone know for sure? i assume they are then...

Excellent crashes... not that talked about either.

Still are made and for sale - EG http://www.atlantapropercussion.com/DOTWpages/catalogpages/zildjianaCrash.html

never knew they had paper thin crashes. i thought only the splashes came in paper thin.
