	cymbal reviews
		Overall, the crashes are very present in the blend and as their Ride cymbal compadres, have a bit flatter profile which adds to the control factor and darkness of tone.
		The bell sound is what a crash cymbal's is usually thought as- higher pitched and really not used for any more than a tonal generator for the body of the cymbal.
		One criticism I have of the cymbals is the finish- In my "bag of tricks" I like to scrape the tip of the stick across the surface of the cymbal to achieve a very high pitched squeal.

		Student cymbals that offer the possibility of upgrading to pro-level are mainly the ones made from B8 alloy.
		Some Pearl brass cymbals however are made from a better sounding brass variety, these are sometimes worth hammering.

		The traditional cymbal production that started with church bell manufacturing has continued with the work of our father famous cymbal master Agop Tomurcuk and the company, Istanbul Cymbals that he established in early eighties.

	RECORDING - Bosphorus/Istanbul cymbals - Sound and Rhythm
		Some drummers who use Zildjian/Sabian/Paiste often have the odd Istanbul in their setup for added colour. Having said this, the difference really isn't that massive.
		I would suggest that if you can find somewhere that stocks Zildjian's or Sabian's as well as Istanbul's, that will give you a chance to hear them side by side and make up your own mind. I haven't really paid attention to the Bosphorus cymbals for a few years as I wasn't particularly impressed.
		I think one of the problems with buying high end cymbals is just finding them at stores to try out.
