The Istanbul Agop Traditional 12" Splash Cymbal offers a warm, expressive voice with slightly more body and projection than its 10" counterpart. Handcrafted in Turkey from premium B20 bronze, it combines traditional hand hammering and lathing techniques to produce the rich tonal complexity and musical character that define the Traditional Series.

The larger 12" diameter creates a fuller, lower-pitched accent with increased sustain, making it ideal for drummers who want a splash cymbal that feels more substantial without sacrificing speed or responsiveness. It delivers a clean, immediate attack followed by a smooth, controlled decay, with warm overtones that blend naturally into the overall cymbal setup rather than sounding overly bright or abrupt.

Whether you're playing jazz, blues, rock, pop, funk or contemporary worship, the Traditional 12" Splash Cymbal provides a versatile range of musical accents. Its balanced combination of warmth, projection and handcrafted character makes it equally effective for subtle textures, dynamic fills and expressive cymbal work.
