My first Experience With Bosphorus


Alright, I got my turks. And I can stop raving! First impressions (before even playing) were that these cymbals are absolutely gorgeous. Every mark made by hand. Bosphorus got cymbal making right. The cymbals are dry, dark, and amazing. After playing them I proceeded to throw all of my Zildjians in the trash. They're just awsome.



BTW: Thanks to Davenhurst for showing me that there is a world outside of Zildjian.

I dont plan to turn back. I've got my eyes, and my thin wallet, on some tasty turk medium rides!

Yeah - INPUT!!!

Actually, while we're waiting you can hear them at http://www.cymbalsonly.com , the Bosphorus page is the first one you get to and the turks are the second series down. Lots of very beautiful cymbals to listen to.

I dont really hve the equipment to make a good recording, so I cant really get any decent soundfiles up.
These cymbals are well worth the money. They actually inspire me to play drums! And now that I dont have any more crappy cymbals maybe I'll post some pics in the gallery, maybe.....

BTW: Those antique crashes sound awesome! Christmas is coming....
