Those might just be speed holes
![]() But I'm slow; I don't like the sound of either of them. Especially for that money ![]() Seriously though, did they ever put an extra hole in the cup in the factory? |

Those radial holes are the physical proof of actual humans walking around with the brain capacity of chimpanzees (and with power tools). That's so ridiculous.
With the 2nd cymbal there- I have found that a highly polished old cymbal- if you then stop polishing it and just use it, handle it, play it- it can tarnish back up pretty quickly- it has no protective coating. Especially if you like the brighter sounding Ks it might not be the end of the world that is was polished. Unlike the first cymbal there- the polished K can at least be allowed to re-patina.

There should only be ONE hole in a cymbal........the one in the middle of the cup, period!
