- What if Sabian made an Istanbul TURK?
- Well apparently they did! At least once!
- Here’s a One-of-a-Kind Sabian. I’ve never even seen this beauty before!
- It’s an HH Hand Hammered Prototype but it’s raw and unlathed like an Agop TURK!
- Sabian Custom Vault HH Prototype China or Swish in immaculate condition!
- I love that Sabian experiments! Zildjian is so conservative it’s stuffy! Sabian explores and they always have. I admire that.
- And this Prototype is the fruit of their philosophy.
- At 1616 grams this Prototype plays like a Medium Thin.
- DRY and extremely organic with that exotic Hand Hammered tone that turned heads 40 years ago when Sabian began.
- All that beautiful Hand Hammering supplies a wonderful complexity however being an unlathed and raw Turk style - this China is DRY and has a fairly quick decay. Very earthen and organic looking and sounding.
- Unlathed and Raw TURK surface is ripe for the striking! It makes a fantastic alternate ride cymbal. The stick attack is solid - especially for a China.
-
18” size makes it controlled and have a quick and cutting attack.
- This is exactly the kind of cymbal Jack DeJohnette would play. Very expressive and musical.
- Immaculate condition. Nothing like it. A beautiful Turk Sabian that they never offered - well, except once!
