About This Listing

Traditionals feature many models/weights. Rides are "open" and versatile. Beneath their stick sound lies plenty of silvery and, at times, fairly complex wash. Crashes open rapidly, the warm note that wells up, is as sweet as it is punchy. Hats are bright, crisp and pleasingly rounded. Their response is quick, they give positive chick when stepped.

Istanbul Agop cymbals have ONE year warranty against manufacturing flaws, starting from date of the purchase made from Cymbal House which is the authorized dealer of Istanbul Agop.

Product Overview
Operating in its current incarnation since 2004 after creating a headquarters in the United States, Istanbul Agop is one of the cymbal industry's leaders in crafting traditional Turksih cymbals. The company was founded by and named after Agop Tomurcuk, who spent decades in Turkey's sole cymbal foundry learning the craft before creating his own company.

The Traditional series features individual hand-hammering, differing weights for each cymbal and a secret alloy. This produces cymbals unique from one another, even two cymbals of the same size and model. This series is warm, responsive and dark.

The Heavy Hi-Hat features a higher pitch than other hi-hats in this series and is best suited for articulate sticking and volume.

This price reflects the pair of hi-hats.

Years of production: ca. 1997-present

Notable players: Mel Lewis, Cindy Blackman, Dave Turncrantz
