Turkish Cymbals Classic China – Exotic Sharpness
The Classic series by Turkish Cymbals is the most versatile series in the brand – a professional standard with the sonic character of a classic vintage cymbal and the fresh tone of the present day. Hand-cast, hand-hammered and hand-lathed in Istanbul, it covers a wide tonal spectrum: from dark and full-bodied to bright and clear.
Sound Character: High, Cutting and Exotic
The Classic China offers a characteristic sound that comes directly from the Istanbul cymbal-making tradition: high, cutting and with a distinctly exotic atmosphere. Response is immediate – no build-up, no hesitation – and the decay short and controlled. In sizes 8", 10" and 12", character increases with size: the 8" model sounds almost like an aggressive splash, the 12" model develops more body and depth. The B20 bronze alloy ensures that the Classic China remains musical despite its aggressive character.
Applications: Jazz, Rock, Funk, Fusion and Experimental Playing
The Classic China is a specialist for short, punchy accents with an exotic sonic character. In Rock and Metal it sets aggressive, cutting accents that stand apart from the rest of the setup. In Jazz and Fusion it delivers an unusual, exotic tonal colour. In experimental playing it becomes a creative tool for drummers who think beyond conventional cymbal sounds. Hand percussionists also find interesting tonal possibilities in the Classic China.
Craftsmanship from Istanbul – At the Best Price
Every Classic cymbal is crafted in the workshops of Turkish Cymbals in Istanbul following a tradition that reaches back centuries. The secret B20 bronze alloy – 80% copper, 20% tin – is hand-cast, heated and hammered thousands of times by experienced master craftsmen. Each cymbal bears the unmistakable signature of its maker. We at Cymballand are proud, as the official partner of Turkish Cymbals, to bring this craftsmanship directly to you – without intermediaries, at the best price.

Das 10" Clatter Splash ist noch sensibeler als das 12er, harmoniert aber perfektmit allen anderen. Danke Bülent, wieder ein Highlight!
Die Clatter Splashes sind schon von der Optik ein echter Hingucker.
