Zildjian K Constantinople or Bosphorus?


Hey yos,

First post on this beast, glad I could find a drumming forum. Nice to know drummers DO communicate haha.

I got a bunch of birthday money and I was having some trouble deciding what to do with it--do I lower my car or get a cymbal? Well...I'm feeling a little more like getting another cymbal now because it costs a little less and...well I don't know, I mean come on, I'm a drummer. I don't need to explain myself.

Fact is I looked on eBay (sometimes the best place, sometimes the worst place) because I don't want to spend a ton on a brand new cymbal. Now a fellow drummer at my University once had a Bosphorus New Orleans ride, and...man, that thing was pretty impressive. Though I do have to say it was never as impressive and sweet as the Zildjian K Constantinople Light Ride another acquaintance had. I definitely fell in love with that thing.

The question is just that: which cymbal do you think I should go with/which cymbal would you rather go with and why? I like that sweet, almost crashy sound in a ride--to give you an idea of the sound I'm looking for, listen to "Natural Anthem" by Radiohead--the sound of the ride at the end is just about it exactly.

Thanks y'all.
