Azco

Beginning in 1968, Azco (Avedis Zildjian Company) Ltd. started cymbal production. The cymbals were cast and rolled in the Zildjian facility in Massachussetts, and finished in the Azco plant in Meductic, New Brunswick, Canada.* This facility would later be the original home to Sabian cymbals. (More information is needed about Azco cymbal models at this time.)
