Tony Williams Signature Series
1 x TW-HH14 - 14" Hi-Hat Cymbals Simply a stunningly beautiful pair of old Turkish made HiHats. The top and bottom cymbal are perfectly nested from a lifetime of playing. The chick is gorgeous, the stick sound...sublime. But the cymbal masters at Istanbul Mehmet were not to be daunted and the replica HiHats were, in fact, the first of the models to be approved.
1 x TW-C18 - 18" Crash Cymbal Just slightly larger than 18" Crash. These sonic characteristics have been replicated through a careful combination of additional hammering and specific lathing.
1 x TW-R22 - 22" Ride Cymbal The most celebrated Ride cymbal in history? Undoubtedly. Long regarded as the epitome of the ideal old Turkish cymbal Ride sound. Used by Tony on all the Quintet recordings up to 'Sorcerer', after which it was forced in to retirement due to increasing fragility, this magnificent cymbal now bears the scars of the most intense Ride cymbal playing in history.

Great Thin Zebra Crash from Mehteran!
I ordered this and they did a great job hand making my cymbal for me. The sound is just what I was looking for.

Mehteran 18" Zebra Crash
I have the 19" and needed the 17"
Extremely dry, infact it's drier than a packet of salted crackers. Trashy harmonics, a smooth response with a rapid decay. This cymbal is opening up nicely the more I play it. Was a little stiff at first! Amazing instrument! Top Quality.

Great Jazz hats!
The 13" size makes these hats ultra crisp and tight. Super tight chick sound when played with the foot. Might be too high pitched for rock, but absolutely perfect for Jazz. The ultimate Jazz hats!!

Istanbul Mehmet 13" Mehmet Legend Hi-Hat
Beautiful Ride!
This versitile ride can be used for all genres of music. Very smooth sounding with the perfect amount of wash underneath that doesn't overpower the stick articulation. It also can be crashed making it the perfect ride! Great bell sound. This ride does it all!!

Great handcrafted Turkish cymbals
I ordered a full customized set of 14” hit hats, 14, 16, and 19 crashes and 22” ride. All are beautifully crafted and work well together. I received a complimentary cymbal bag with my order. It was shipped and received in a timely fashion, well-packaged, and arrived undamaged. I have ordered three times from them and all have been perfect.

Full, pure tone…
Lush, full, pleasing tone. 17” crash is a perfect punchy accent for me.

Mehteran Cymbals 17" Soft Thin Crash
Must have dark dry hi-hats!
Dry, sultry, quick decay - these bad boys are amazing. Complex tones are quick to get out of the mix. These dark hats are perfect for live and studio performances. The heavy weight gives them the volume I wanted for live performance, but still offer versatility when playing.

Bosphorus Ari Hoenig Signature Lyric Ride 23”
It’s been a very huge pleasure of mine to be able to purchase cymbals from you guys. Top notch customer service, and the shop has so many cymbals options. I’d absolutely buy another cymbal from this shop again. You guys are the absolute best.

Mehteran 22" X-Dry Heavy Ride - Awesome!
Dark, dry, cutting, powerful but controlled, this ride is everything and more that I needed. I have used it for my last 5 gigs and it's amazing. I coupled it with the X-dry Hats, and a 17 thin X dry crash! Oh boy! Winning combination for dry, fast decay cymbals. High quality, fast shipping and great cost.

These nostalgia 14" hats are brilliant and crisp. There is much to draw out of these hats. Sounds Anatolian have been amazing in ordering and delivering these. I am grateful!
