China and effect cymbals are the creative spice in any drum kit – fast, trashy accents, explosive stops and exotic tone colours that make a setup unmistakable. At Turkish Cymbals, each of these cymbals is made 100% by hand in Istanbul: cast from premium B20 bronze (80% copper, 20% tin), hand-hammered and lathed. The result is an aggressive, trashy sound with immediate response and short decay.
China, Swish, Stack & Holey – the whole world of effects
Our range runs from the classic China with a turned-down edge through Swish and Pang cymbals to modern effect sounds. For dry, exotic trash accents in jazz, funk and fusion, the raw Chinas of the Kurak series are ideal, while the Apex series delivers explosive stops with its wide, turned-down edge. Anyone after short, aggressive effects for rock, jungle and progressive will find creative potential in the drilled Holey models of the Sirius series and the cut spiral shapes of the Comet series. The Stack series provides clappy stack sounds for electronic grooves and metal, while the experimental sounds of the Soundscape series open up entirely new sonic worlds.
Construction & character – what matters
Classic Chinas with a turned-down edge deliver the typically trashy, cutting tone, while Reverse Bell models offer a faster, shorter response. Drilled Holey cymbals sound especially dry and explosive, stacks create a short, clappy effect, and Pang cymbals combine China character with longer vibrations. Whether as a striking main effect or a fine splash of colour, there is a matching cymbal for every creative idea.

Great cymbal! Just as thrashy & crashy as I want. Cuts great through anything else!
Hi Miha, great to hear that you're enjoying your beautiful Turkish Cymbals FX China 17”! Thanks for sharing your positive experience and four 5 stars! Keep on grooving
Die Hi-Hats klingen wirklich sensationell gut, ich bin total begeistert.
Einen Stern Abzug gibt es wegen der unprofessionellen und unzureichenden Verpackung. Die Becken wurden ohne Polsterung einfach nur lieblos in einer Plastiktüte in einem viel zu großen Karton verschickt. Da beide Becken Sizzles haben, kamen die Becken entsprechend verkratzt an. So etwas darf einem Händler nicht passieren.
Lieber Daniel,
vielen Dank für deine ehrliche Bewertung!
Es freut uns riesig zu hören, dass die Snake Hi-Hats klanglich so gut bei dir ankommen – das macht uns wirklich glücklich!
Aber zur Verpackung: Du hast absolut recht, und wir möchten uns dafür aufrichtig entschuldigen. Die Becken erreichen uns aus der Türkei leider oft in genau dieser Art verpackt, und wir haben sie in diesem Fall so weiterverschickt, wie sie bei uns ankamen. Das war ein Fehler, der uns nicht passieren darf – gerade bei Becken mit Sizzles ist eine ordentliche Polsterung absolut notwendig.
Wir werden künftig deutlich mehr Sorgfalt auf die Verpackung legen und sicherstellen, dass so etwas nicht noch einmal vorkommt.
Danke, dass du dir die Zeit genommen hast, uns darauf hinzuweisen.
Thank you for your kind words! We're glad you enjoyed the Turkish Cymbals Euphonic Crash-Becken. It means a lot to us to hear that our product is meeting your expectations. We hope to see you again soon for your future perfect cymbal needs. Rock on!
