Bosphorus Turk Series

Unlathed, dry, and very dark

Turk cymbals are left largely unlathed with heavy hammering, producing a dry, short, trashy voice with almost no sustain — the cymbal equivalent of a muffled drum, and a studio staple.

    Bosphorus was founded by two smiths trained in the Istanbul workshops, and every cymbal is cast, hand-hammered, and lathed individually. The Master, Traditional, and Turk series cover a range from bright and modern to dark, dry, and unlathed.
