Turkish Cymbals Classic Series

The Classic series is the professional standard line from Turkish Cymbals – the manufacturer calls it its most versatile series, and our experience confirms it. With its balanced weight and the characteristic dents of hand hammering, it follows the tradition of dark, warm Istanbul cymbals. Every Classic cymbal is cast, hammered and lathed by hand in Istanbul from B20 bronze.

Versatile sound from deep and earthy to full and broad

The series’ sound ranges from deep, earthy and dark tones through full, warm and open sounds to bright, clear accents. The Thin models respond especially fast, the Dark models sound fuller and darker, and the china and effect cymbals bring colours of their own to your setup. That way, a single series covers many styles. If you love the traditional, warm tonal colour of the Classic cymbals, you’ll also find it in the Millennium series and the Vintage Soul series.

Musical styles and cymbals in the series

With its versatile character, the Classic series suits jazz, rock, funk and fusion – as well as soul, metal and punk; you can play practically any style with it. The series includes the Classic Crash and the Classic Crash Thin in 15" to 20", the Classic Crash Dark, the Classic Ride in 20" to 24", the Classic Hi-Hat in 12" to 15", the Classic Splash and the Classic Splash Dark, plus the china and effect cymbals Classic China, Classic China Reverse, Classic China Thin and Classic Swish. That lets you build a complete setup with a consistent sound from a single series. If you prefer to browse by type, you’ll also find every model under crash cymbals, ride cymbals, hi-hat cymbals, splash cymbals and china & effect cymbals.
