Agean Cymbals 19-inch Natural Crash/Ride

Brand: Agean Cymbals

Features:

• Hand crafted in Istanbul, Turkey
• Its dark unlathed surface produces a short sustain and a projecting attack.
• These cymbals were initially developed for Jazz & Fusion but they are becoming more popular with Rock and Pop.
• Made with B20, the Natural Series is a hand hammered cymbal that offers dry and earthy characteristics with a subtle decay.
• The Bronze B20 alloy (80% copper, 20% tin, traces of silver) is almost identical to the alloy used by other major manufacturers for their high-end series. The proportions are slightly different from the others because Agean Cymbals has its own secret of alloy preparation.

Details: ***No machines but only fingers to produce*** Great choice for pop, Jazz and fusion. Earthy and dry sound character with a fairly short sustain. The finish of the cymbals of the Natural series is unlathed. Their sound is well defined: short, dark and very musical. Very recommended for those looking for little shine and a lot of control especially in acoustic or low volume situations.
