Turkish Cymbals Classic Ride – Warm Depth
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: Warm, Dark and Balanced
The Classic Ride is the centrepiece of the series. It offers a warm, darkly coloured sound with a balanced blend of ping and shimmer – clear without being shrill. The clear, cutting bell delivers defined accents with immediate response, while the playing surface develops a musical wash that carries the groove without overpowering it. Available in sizes 20", 21", 22" and 24", the Classic Ride offers the right dimension for every style and every stage: the 20" model responds quickly and directly, the 24" model delivers maximum volume and depth.
Applications: Jazz, Rock, Funk and Fusion
The Classic Ride is a true all-rounder – the most versatile ride cymbal in the Turkish Cymbals range. In Jazz it impresses with its warm, musical openness and sensitive response to brushes and light sticks. In Rock and Funk the bell delivers powerful, assertive bell patterns. In Fusion drummers value the balance between clear articulation and musical wash. A cymbal that works in any setup – from the small jazz club to the large stage.
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.
