16" Istanbul Mehmet Turk Crash Cymbal - Unlathed, raw

Product Description

The Istanbul Mehmet Turk Crash 16" is a hand-hammered, unlathed cymbal with a raw surface that clearly shows every hammer mark. It delivers a dry, compact sound while still keeping the wide array of low overtones typical of hand-hammered cymbals. Great for rock, jazz, and everything in between, whenever you want a controlled yet musical crash.

The unlathed, raw surface leaves the hammering process fully visible and directly shapes the compact, dry character of the sound. Despite the dry attack, the cymbal retains a broad range of low overtones, keeping the tone alive and musical rather than flat or lifeless.

Sound Character

Expect a tone that's dry, compact, raw, controlled, and musical. It's built for players who want a defined attack without a long, washy tail, while still holding onto depth from the low overtones.

Who It's For

The Turk Crash 16" suits rock and jazz drummers looking for a hand-hammered cymbal with a raw, organic voice rather than a bright, polished standard crash.
