Brand: Bosphorus Cymbals
Features:
Details: Doron Giat’s cymbal line consists of 13 different cymbals that offer a sweet, clean sound, that is extremely responsive and modern sounding. The cymbals are designed to fit every musical situation – from Jazz, Funk and Latin, to Rock and Fusion, from the studio to the stage and outdoors. The cymbals are light in weight and characterized in a smooth pleasant sound and a cool splashy spark at first touch. Clean and explosive at the same time. Each cymbal is very versatile and has a significant stick definition.
Bosphorus Cymbals was established in 1996 by three master cymbal smiths, Hasan Seker, Ibrahim Yakici and Hasan Ozdemir. They are called Masters 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.
Great for smaller or lower dynamic set ups, including hand percussion and acoustic music. Great sound and very unique.
FX crash, trash crash, ozone crash — whatever you call it, I think this version in Agean's Beast line is one of the best and most versatile I've heard. It's cutting and robust, not too airy or quick, but still with the drier, earthier tone that its gorgeous finish (sort of a cross between natural and traditional) implies. Good weight, feels durable. Another unique and exceptional-sounding cymbal from Agean.
An excellent china from Agean with a rich, pleasing tone and a striking finish. The cymbal I received is on the thicker side, so the pitch is relatively high, but its extensive hammering moderates the volume and harshness. A fantastic china for pretty much any genre except metal (you'll need something louder, with more lathing and less hammering, to cut through such high-gain instruments). The whole Stoned line has been nothing but winners in my book.
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.
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.

Amazing!! From the purchasing experience to getting the actual product - I cannot recomend SoundsAnatolian enough to drummers!! If you want quality, if you want truly Turkish cymbals - this is the place!! Excellent customer service, and excellent product throughout. Thank you.
The 19" Valentino Crash sounds exactly as I imagined it would. The build quality is beyond reproach. It also pairs perfectly with the 17" Valentino Crash, which I also purchased. Both are tonally perfectly matched. I’ve experienced this same effect before when I bought two Mehteran cymbals from the Ayasofya series here. It’s hard to believe you can get this kind of quality at such a great price.
