Turkish Cymbals Prestige-TR Crash – Dynamic, Dark and Precise
The Prestige-TR series by Turkish Cymbals is immediately recognisable: a jet-black finish – created not through lacquering but through a special chemical treatment process – covers the entire surface. This black patina is no superficial coating: it is part of the metal itself and directly influences the sound. The treated, fully unlathed surface deliberately dampens overtones, shortens sustain and produces a dark, dry and controlled tonal character unique in this form. A visual statement, a sonic masterpiece.
Sound Character: Open, Dark and Controlled
The Prestige-TR Crash in 19” combines the dark, controlled fundamental character of the series with a surprising openness and dynamic range unusual for a crash cymbal of this kind. The black, unlathed finish produces a balanced blend of dark tones and responsive attack – the attack is direct and expressive, the decay controlled and musical. The fine hammering gives the cymbal nuance and musicality that goes beyond a simple crash sound. For drummers who want to set precise crash accents with distinct character and the visual and sonic statement of the Prestige-TR series.
Applications: Blues, Jazz-Fusion, Traditional Jazz, Latin, Soul, R’n’B and Funk
The Prestige-TR Crash is ideal for drummers seeking expressive crash accents with a dark, controlled tonal character. In Blues and Traditional Jazz it sets delicate, warm accents with organic depth. In Jazz-Fusion it delivers dynamic, expressive crash moments. IIn Latin, Soul, R’n’B and Funk the balance of directness and musical depth delivers exceptional precision.
Craftsmanship from Istanbul – At the Best Price
Every Prestige-TR cymbal is crafted in the workshops of Turkish Cymbals in Istanbul from the secret B20 bronze alloy – 80% copper, 20% tin – hand-cast, heated and intensively hammered by experienced master craftsmen. The subsequent black treatment process – no lacquer, but a chemical reaction with the bronze itself – is the heart of this series and requires deep craft knowledge. We at Cymballand are proud, as the official partner of Turkish Cymbals, to bring this exceptional series directly to you – without intermediaries, at the best price.
