• ZILDJIAN “Kerope” series, long-awaited revival!

  

  2025/06/27

  The "Kerope" series, meticulously handcrafted by skilled artisans, has been revived to bring Zildjian’s traditional "K" sound into the modern era!
  The newly reborn Kerope features a vintage tone reminiscent of the Turkish-made "K" cymbals from the Intermediate Stamp era, after which it is named. It offers an unmatched touch, a clear attack, and a warm, complex crash sound.
  Another unique feature of the Kerope is the tone and character of each instrument varies, even within the same part number.
  The Kerope series is the culmination of over 400 years of Zildjian technology and craftsmanship, and we hope you will find one that suits you!
