The Prestige TR series by Turkish Cymbals was developed specifically for jazz drummers in search of a deep, dry and dark sound picture. The fully and densely hand-hammered cymbals have a matt-black, only lightly lathed, unlacquered surface that is not only visually unique but also contributes to a controlled, warm and nuanced sound. Every cymbal is hammered by hand in Istanbul from premium B20 bronze.
Dark, dry sound with a soft ping
The Prestige TR cymbals offer a shortened sustain, a clear stick definition and a soft ping that unfolds superbly in acoustic and dynamic styles. The result is a dark, cultivated sound spectrum with aesthetic depth. Anyone seeking similarly dark, dry-warm cymbals will also find them in the Cappadocia and Dark Hammer series.
Musical styles and cymbals in the series
Despite their jazz-oriented character, these cymbals are extremely versatile and excellently suited to jazz-fusion, soul, funk, R’n’B, latin and traditional jazz. The series includes a Crash with a dark attack and expressive character, a Hi-Hat with a dry, dark chick and strong presence, and a Ride with a dark stick sound and controlled wash. This lets you build a complete, dark-timbred setup from a single series.
As the official Turkish Cymbals dealer in Germany, we have been advising you personally since 2015 – with genuine expertise and shipping directly from Berlin. Discover the Prestige TR series in hand-hammered B20 bronze.
Ich bin total begeistert von dem gelieferten Jazzbecken.
Großartiges Preis-Leistungsverhältnis.
Vielen Dank 🤗
Hallo Rolf, vielen Dank für deine 5 Sterne und die netten Worte! Es freut mich sehr, dass dir das John Blackwell Signature Ride so gut gefällt. Viel Spaß beim Spielen, und wenn du mal Fragen hast oder etwas Neues suchst, melde dich gern bei mir.
Eine interessante Mischung aus Splash und Mini Flat Ride. Eine Bereicherung für mein Set Up.
Hallo Simon,
vielen Dank für die fünf Sterne und für das Foto dazu. Die Beschreibung trifft es genau: Die Satellite Flat Bell ist irgendwo zwischen Splash und Mini Flat Ride angesiedelt, und genau diese Zwischenwelt macht sie so spannend. Schön zu hören, dass sie dein Set bereichert.
Really dark, loud hihats, works good as secondary hats for blastbeats when set not too washy.
Thanks for the order, and for this genuinely useful feedback. Dark and loud with control over the wash is exactly the Kurak character, and hearing that it holds up for blastbeats as secondary hats is a great data point for anyone in that scene. Enjoy them!
