Istanbul 17 Inch Traditional Dark Crash Cymbal

The Istanbul 17-Inch Traditional Dark Crash Cymbal is a premium, completely hand-crafted instrument known for delivering a low, moody, and punchy crash sound with a speedy response. Produced by the split brands Istanbul Agop and Istanbul Mehmet, these cymbals are forged in Turkey using a time-trusted B20 bronze alloy formulation (80% copper, 20% tin). They offer fewer high-frequency overtones and a fast attack, allowing them to cut through a musical mix at both high and low volumes without becoming overbearing.

• Sound Profile: Harmonious, round, warm, and dark.
• Material: Premium B20 Bronze Alloy.
• Response: Perfectly poised and quick stick response.

Item Condition: This cymbal shows evidence of play such as stick marks and light patina in places, but no damage such as cracks or keyholing around the centre mounting hole.
