Information

This Istanbul Agop Xist 8″ Splash Cymbal is now available with us at Graham Russell Drums.

The Xist range gives you traditional Turkish cymbal making in a modern, accessible form, cast from B20 bronze and hand-hammered in Istanbul. It carries genuine made-in-Turkey pedigree at a price well below other Turkish B20 splashes, without cutting corners on the alloy or the finishing. This 8 inch splash carries the natural lathed finish and is built for speed, responding quickly and directly with a clean attack.

An 8 inch splash is all about the accent: it speaks the instant you hit it and gets out of the way just as fast, adding bright, precise punctuation without cluttering a groove. It sits neatly above the hi-hats or beside a crash for quick colour, and the small size also makes it a natural candidate for stacking if you want a shorter, trashier effect. It's an easy, affordable way to add a genuine Turkish accent voice to almost any setup.

Key features:

• Natural lathed finish with a clean, bright attack
• Quick and direct response for fast, precise accents
• Fast decay that stays out of the way of the groove
• Works well stacked for a shorter, trashier effect
• Cast B20 bronze, hand-hammered in the Istanbul Agop tradition
• Genuine made-in-Turkey quality at a noticeably lower price than comparable Turkish splashes
