Istanbul Agop 30th Anniversary Cymbals UK — Into Music Store

The Istanbul Agop 30th Anniversary series represents the pinnacle of the Istanbul Agop range — a commemorative collection of fully handcrafted cymbals created to mark three decades of cymbal-making in Istanbul, Turkey. Every cymbal in the series is hand-hammered and lathed by master craftsmen using traditional techniques, producing a rich, warm, and complex tone with exceptional dynamic sensitivity and natural variation between individual pieces.

The series spans hi-hats, crashes, and rides. The hi-hat range is unusually broad — available in 12", 14", 15", and 16" — making it one of the few series to cater for drummers who want a non-standard hi-hat size. The 12" option is best for jazz and low-volume playing where a quick, articulate response is needed. The 14" is the most versatile choice for a wide range of styles. The 15" and 16" options are best for drummers who want a heavier, darker hi-hat sound with more wash and weight. The crash range covers 16", 18", and 19", each with the warm, complex attack that defines the 30th Anniversary character. The ride range is one of the most impressive in the series — available in 20", 22", 24", and 26" — making it one of the few series to offer a 26" ride for drummers who want a truly commanding, large-format instrument.
