Bosphorus crash cymbal with a dark, raw sound
If you want a crash cymbal that reacts differently from a traditional polished model, the Bosphorus Turk Series Crash 17 inch sits in a very distinctive sound area. This crash has a dark, raw tone and a dark dry decay, so stick definition comes through clearly without excessive spread or volume.
The completely unlathed, hand hammered finish is directly tied to that character. You notice it in the dark, esoteric stick sound and in the clear articulation, especially when you play more subtly or want more detail from your cymbal work.
17 inch crash cymbal for smaller settings
The Bosphorus Turk Series is especially at home in smaller musical settings where lower volume is needed, while articulation still matters. That makes this 17 inch crash cymbal a strong choice for traditional applications, as an effect cymbal, or as a primary cymbal when this dry and dark character is exactly what you need.
For the advanced player, this Bosphorus offers a very sensitive response with an intense auditory atmosphere. At Magna Music, you can also count on personal advice from musicians who know how a distinctive crash like this fits into a practical setup.
