Bosphorus 19" Avanos Crash

Bosphorus 19" Avanos Crash Cymbal

The Bosphorus 19" Avanos Crash delivers a broad, powerful crash sound with the warmth, complexity, and responsive feel associated with handcrafted Turkish cymbals. Its larger 19" diameter produces a deeper pitch and fuller spread than smaller crash cymbals, making it a strong choice for drummers who want added body without sacrificing clarity.

The Avanos Series balances traditional Turkish tonal character with a more direct and versatile response. This crash opens quickly, even at moderate dynamics, with a clear initial attack followed by a warm, smooth sustain. Its broad voice works well as a primary crash or as a lower-pitched companion to an existing cymbal setup.

Individually hand-hammered and crafted in Istanbul, Turkey, each Bosphorus cymbal offers subtle variations that give it a distinctive musical personality. The 19" Avanos Crash is well suited for rock, funk, blues, pop, fusion, and other contemporary styles that call for a full and expressive crash sound.
