The Beauty Of Bosphorus Cymbals

By Angela Sullivan


I am confident that most individuals will agree with me that Bosphorus is the in thing currently as far as cymbals are concerned. Being a firm which had its humble beginning in Istanbul, Turkey. Bosphorus cymbals has grown tremendously into an international company with its products sold overseas. Jeff Hamilton and Stanton Moore have even agreed to endorse their quality products.

Ibrahim Yakici, Hasan Seker, and Hasan Ozdemir are the founders of this company. These young men gained their experience after working for some time with the initial Zildjian company. There were disputes and divisions of the Zildjian company. This created a gap for these two individuals to exploit where they opted to start the Bosphorus company.

To the few who have been lucky enough to set their touch on this merchandise, they seem to have the adventure to tell. They are fascinating to use not only on the music quality that includes the tone and p[itch but also in their overall cost. As compared to the native ones which were best for jazz, they can be used for different music kinds.

Starting with their cost, they are relatively cheaper compared to other kinds of cymbal manufactured by other companies. Production of this cymbal is only done through hand work. No machining is involved. This, in the long run, lowers the cost of production. Their price, therefore, becomes lower. In Australia for example, they go for half the price of other brands.

Locating them in the market should never be done in any rush. They have a huge resemblance with the Zildjian cymbals. The similarity is attributed to the fact that the Bosphorus company has its roots from the Zildjian. The logo will be very helpful in differentiating.

The newest brands of this merchandise from Bosphorus are a series comprising rides, hi-hats and crashes. They have received a huge demand from the drummers family in most parts of the world. An absorbing thing about them is that they are the first cymbals to be made of B20 bronze.

Though bronze has been the only utilized material for the making of cymbals over the years, the B20 bronze type has very particular features. It is very easy to work with. The experienced craftsmen from Bosphorus can easily work with this kind of bronze and be able to spread the weight evenly and develop the best shapes.The edges can also be flattened well with high precision.

They have a natural primitive appearance to ones eyes. However, for anyone who will be very keen on their presence they will note the captivating finishes done on them. The surface is covered by hammer marks from the edges all through to the centre. Additionally, there are concentric circles on their bows making it extra beautiful.

Being musical instruments, their quality cannot be approved if their music output is not approved. The B20 bronze used for their making of makes one have total control of the music quality. One cannot resist the quality of the music that is given by these cymbals as compared to the using of other brands.
