Not my first purchase
Not my first purchase, because I've always been satisfied. The cymbals are great, but that's not a surprise. The service and price were also great. It's not always easy to find an uncommon cymbal such as this one, but Sounds Anatolian was able to satisfy my request. It took a little longer since it was a special order, but it arrived safe and sound. One of the best parts, besides the huge discount when buying directly from their website, was free shipping with DHL. It's not just the shipping, but the service of paying customs/duties. Since the cymbals ship from Turkey, it would have taken three weeks or so just to clear customs in Italy, but with DHL it took only 48 hours. Awesome! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Wonderful and versatile!!
Wonderful and versatile!! The 17 Lotus medium crash is a beautiful sounding and looking cymbal with a great complex wash amd crash! I have been using it in a single cymbal micro kit setup, but have also used it with other Mehteran Cymbals in a full setup. It works great with almost any combination!! Great crash and works great as a small ride, too. The little bell really comes through more than expected! Love it!! As always, thanks for the amazing cymbals!!
