I recently acquired two of these, I only need one. No big sales pitch to follow. If you know what this is, you don't need no stinking sales pitch! LOL

Ted Kaye signed, low serial number (#1328)

$425.00 - shipping included in lower 48. US Postal Money Order or Certified Check only. If you don't know me, check my feedback in the Seller Feedback section.

You Tube video of Sabian Artisan 18". The cymbal in the video is not the same one I'm selling. I'm posting the sound file just so you can get a clear idea of what an 18" Artisan sounds like. These Artisan's remind me a lot of old K's, dark, rich tone, clear highs, and it has a real explosive response with perfect decay.

Weekend Bump.

Peeps... It's a signed and numbered Sabian Vault Artisan cymbal for $425 shipped. I'm surprised it hasn't been scooped up already! Not your 'everyday' pie! This is a very special musical instrument.

First come, first served... the race goes to the swiftest.

Well it's a great cymbal, no doubt, and I love the sound of it, the ones I've heard, but it's a little steep for me.

1958 Gretsch Kit
1966 Kent Kit
1969 Ludwig Standard Kit
1970 Rogers Power Tone Kit
1970's Ludwig Vistalite Kit
1994 Yamaha Maple Custom

28 assorted snares (including some real crap)
and 1 really nice K Zildjian Istanbul

Thanks Glenn, Mac.

The price is fair! Newer production cymbals go for what I'm asking for this one. This one is a low number cymbal hammered and signed by one of the Sabian Artisans, Ted Kaye. Kaye cymbal numbers are up in the thousands now and this is an early one. Price is firm. I know what I have and what it's worth. To get an equally great sounding cymbal you'd have to spend $1400 on an old K.

The right buyer will come along. Thanks for the bumps... I'm really trying to find a good home for this special pie. Someone who will appreciate and enjoy the quality instrument they'll have.
