Re: Help! Zildjian or Sabian OK Turk Masters has an American cymbal tech that is one of the top in the world. (Their words not mine.) I actually believe this. They are hand made in Turkey by the top Turkish cymbal masters in the world. I went to a drum clinic a couple years ago where a representative of another Turkish cymbal company brought stacks of Turkish cymbals for us to try out. My Turk Master cymbals were made at the same place by the same people but were louder, clearer and 75% better overall. The reason was they were made to company speculations by a modern cymbal tech combined with ancient skill and quality.
As a Turk Master Endorsee I would take my cymbals to concerts and let other drummers try them out live on stage. There is an elite group of drummers that will tell you in a heart beat that my cymbal collection is the very finest they have ever played. My friend Linda Waring the legendary female drummer of distention known as Fancy Pants and drummer for Texas legend Bugs Henderson and a member of The Rock Hall of Fame is one, my buddy Mark Hamilton of The Dead Pyrates Society is another, Legendary drummer Freddy Steady is one , Cedric Goodman drummer for Chant is another, David Kemper, former grateful Dead and Bob Dylan’s drummer not only loved my cymbal collection, he wanted some like them, that have all played my Turk Masters, there are many more that have played my cymbals, others already have their own like M of Analogmissionary Band. These are the finest I have ever had or owned, bar none! You can only buy then direct from the company.
