Turkish Cymbals
Istanbul maker with an unusually wide series list
Turkish Cymbals casts and hammers B20 bronze in Istanbul across a catalogue broad enough to be confusing — Millennium, Classic, Jazz, Rock Beat, and a long list of artist series. The company also makes a well-regarded line of raw, unlathed cymbals.
Models
-
Turkish Jazz Series
Cymbal · Turkey
The Jazz series runs thin through every diameter, with rides that open quickly and crashes that respond to a brush as readily as a stick.
-
Turkish Raw Series
Cymbal · Turkey
Raw cymbals leave the workshop with the casting surface intact and the edges as hammered, giving an extremely dry, short, trashy voice.
-
Turkish Classic Series
Cymbal · Turkey
Classic is Turkish Cymbals' general-purpose hand-hammered B20 line, lathed top and bottom, and covers the widest set of diameters and weights in the catalogue.
-
Turkish Millennium Series
Cymbal · Turkey
Millennium sits at the bright, cutting end of the Turkish catalogue: heavier weights, tighter lathing, and rides with a defined bell.
