Bosphorus Cymbalswas established in 1996 by three master cymbal smiths,Hasan Seker,Ibrahim YakiciandHasan Ozdemir. They are calledMasters because they are the most experienced cymbal smiths in Turkey who are still working actively.
The founders of Bosphorus were three good friends who grew up in the same neighborhood. Their common thread was being sent to work in a neighborhood cymbal workshop. Their humble beginings included cleaning the workshop and other menial tasks, but in time they were trained in the art of making cymbals. In the early ages of their youth they became cymbal smiths. Their teachers were the masters who manufactured the legendary cymbals of 60’s and 70’s.
After 16 years at the same workshop the friends ventured off on their own and established their own company. Today they maintain good relationships with their former employers. The Masters continue to respect their teachers to this day.
Bosphorus Cymbals has a strong team of cymbal smiths whom are trained at the Bosphorus Factory and most of them working for the company since day one. The Masters continue to craft in the workshop with their workers, guiding them to create the perfect cymbals with their 38 years of experience.
Very good overall, massive upgrade from my planet z ride.
It has a very nice tone to it, and the quality is worth the price, especially considering it's still cheaper than many other similar cymbals. It is a bit washier than I was expecting, but I think that's mostly because I don't have any sound dampening, and thin rides are supposed to be that way anyways.
Beautiful-looking and sounds great: quick decay and cuts easily through the mix

Dark with a quick decay
Dark with a quick decay, the Beast cymbal line is a hidden gem.

Fantastic cymbal.
Great for smaller or lower dynamic set ups, including hand percussion and acoustic music. Great sound and very unique.

exactly the sound I was looking for
I already own two crashes from Mehteran's Valentino series. Since I absolutely loved their sound, I ordered a matching ride. It really has exactly the sound I was looking for, and it goes perfectly with the crashes. The three cymbals harmonize perfectly with each other.

Outstanding quality and sound
The Bosphorus 21" Philly Ride is of outstanding build quality. The sound is absolutely authentic. I would describe it as warm with excellent stick articulation. Thanks to the single rivet, it has a very pleasant wash that never becomes too overpowering.
