The Quality Of Bosphorus Cymbals

By Angela Sullivan


It is true to say that Bosphorous currently dominate the cymbal industry. This company has its origins in the 90s. Based in Turkey to be precise in Istanbul, this company has grown from a small firm to an international one. The unique features that they produce are an attraction to many. This has even lead to Bosphorus cymbals being endorsed by Jeff Hamilton and Stanton Moore.

The core founders of this company were three young men, Ibrahim Yakici, Hasan Seker, and Hasan Ozdemir, who gained their experience after working for the earlier cymbal manufacturer K Zildjian company. Seeing the division in the Zildjian companies they opted to feel the market gap to develop their business.

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.

The popularity of these products continues to grow when their market price are compared to those of cymbals from other producers. Products from Bosphorus are very affordable where some of them go for half the price demanded by other manufacturers. The cost of producing them is lowered since no machinery is used. Only manual labour is utilised.

By eyes, one can easily confuse them from hose produced by the Zildjian Company. This similarity should never be a surprise to one, in fact, it is something that one should expect. The reason behind this similarity is that the Zildjian are the roots of Bosphorus. The logo is only what makes the difference.

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 the use of bronze is the universally accepted raw material for the making of cymbals, the B20 type is very unusual for its ease of crafting and the quality of the music output. The talented makers of these products can easily work with the B20 bronze to make the weight even all over, shaped in the appropriate way and even the edges are well flattened.

Despite their traditional appearance, they have well designed with very attractive finishes. Their surfaces are covered multiple hammer marks on top which run through from the edges to the centre. Concentric circles are found on the bows of the cymbal making it extra attractive to the eye.

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.
