Bosphorus Traditional Crash Cymbal 18″

Classic Turkish cymbal making at its finest. Our most diverse family of cymbals, Traditional Series offers classic Turkish cymbals in a vast array of sizes to match any musical situation.

Their sounds range from dark and delicate to bright and penetrating. Each ride and crash is available in different weight variants.

A heavier ride cymbal yields a higher pitch and increased stick articulation, while the lighter weights offer a softer more ‘vowel’ type stick sound.

Heavier crashes provide more volume with a higher pitch, but take longer for the sound to open up.

Chinas, splashes and flats are not offered in multiple weights.

Traditional, yet far from ordinary.
