The Istanbul Agop Signature 19" Ride Cymbal is handcrafted from premium B20 bronze and offers a uniquely expressive voice that sits perfectly between a traditional ride and a crash-ride. As part of the acclaimed Signature Series, it combines extensive hand hammering with a lightly lathed finish to produce the dark, smoky and complex character inspired by some of the finest vintage Turkish cymbals ever made.

The 19" diameter gives the cymbal a fast, responsive feel with a clear, woody stick definition that blends effortlessly into a warm, buttery wash. Its thin profile allows it to open up easily, making it highly crashable while still retaining enough articulation for intricate ride patterns. Rich, complex overtones and a controlled sustain create a beautifully musical response that rewards expressive playing and subtle dynamics, making it an exceptionally versatile choice for drummers who prefer a more organic ride sound.

Ideal for jazz, blues, fusion, acoustic music and studio performance, the Signature 19" Ride Cymbal is perfect for players seeking a compact ride with vintage-inspired warmth and outstanding crash-ride versatility. Its handcrafted Turkish character and remarkable responsiveness make it an inspiring addition to any professional cymbal setup.
