Istanbul Agop's Description: <<< - >>>
Review: "Istanbul Agop's series of Traditional rides includes models with designations like "Jazz," "Medium," "Rock," "Ping," etc. But our review cymbal holds the distinction of simply being called "Original." As such it represents the basis from which the other models are created.
And what is that basis? A thin cymbal, with a medium-sized bell and a moderate bow (or shoulder). This sort of design creates a dark, washy ride sound, with lots of spread and the potential to roar. If you want more stick attack and definition, a nylon-tipped stick would be your best bet. But that's not the sort of sound this kind of cymbal is about. It cries out to be played at moderate volume with a fairly small-diameter wood-tip stick. Under those conditions this ride offers a truly wonderful depth and character. An original, indeed."
