Turkish Cymbals Travel Crash – Warm, Versatile and Travel-Ready
The Travel series by Turkish Cymbals – developed in close collaboration with Jazz/Rock/Pop touring drummer Chris Wabich – is the answer to a very practical question: how do you travel with professional, handcrafted B20 cymbals without any problems at the airport? The cymbals of the Travel series are compact enough for carry-on luggage or under an aircraft fold-down seat – and yet professional enough to handle any performance. Wabich puts it simply: “Just take whatever else you need – with these cymbals, the gig is covered.” The goal: to deliver an even, pure and warm sound in any room.
Sound Character: Warm, Pure and Balanced
The Travel Crash in 17” and 18” carries the characteristic sound of the Travel series: warm, pure and even in any room. The traditional finish with wide lathing – similar to the Vintage Soul – gives the crash a warm, musical sound quality with fast response and balanced decay. The 17” model is more direct and drier, the 18” model offers more body. Both models can be played confidently straight out of the box – Wabich paid particular attention to tonal consistency during development.
Applications: Jazz, Rock, Pop, Funk and Contemporary
The Travel Crash is ideal for touring drummers seeking a reliable, versatile crash cymbal that works everywhere – from the small jazz club to the large stage. In Jazz the warm, musical character shines beautifully. In Rock and Pop it delivers powerful accents with balanced decay. In Funk and Contemporary the versatile sound fits any situation.
Craftsmanship from Istanbul – At the Best Price
Every Travel 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 carefully hammered by experienced master craftsmen. Chris Wabich placed particular emphasis on consistency: “Often handmade cymbals have too much variance — the Travel Set can be played confidently in any performance, right out of the box.” We at Cymballand are proud, as the official partner of Turkish Cymbals, to bring this series directly to you – without intermediaries, at the best price.
