Turkish Vintage Soul Ride Cymbal 20"

Turkish Vintage Soul 20" Ride Cymbal – Hand-Cast Artisan Craftsmanship

For over a century, Turkish cymbal makers in Istanbul have perfected the art of hand-crafted percussion. The Vintage Soul Ride Cymbal represents this heritage, delivering a distinctive high, sharp, and piercing hiss-tone ideal for punctuated accents and exotic musical textures. Each cymbal is individually cast, hot-rolled, hand-hammered by master artisans, and precision-lathed to exacting standards—a process that cannot be replicated by machine.

Crafted from premium B20 bronze alloy using closely guarded formulas passed through generations, this 20" ride cymbal produces a unique sonic character with its own individual overtones and personality. The hand-made construction ensures that only the finest materials and techniques create an instrument worthy of professional drummers who demand superior sound quality and reliability.
