Information
The Istanbul Agop Cindy Blackman OM 20" Crash Cymbal is now available with us at Graham Russell Drums.
Handcrafted in Istanbul from traditional B20 bronze alloy, this crash cymbal is part of the Cindy Blackman OM series, developed to capture the character and musicality of classic vintage Turkish cymbals. It features a very thin weight with extensive hand hammering and a traditional lathed finish, allowing the cymbal to remain highly responsive and dynamically sensitive. The 20" diameter adds depth and body to the sound, while the overall construction reflects a balance between old-world warmth and modern versatility.
This crash cymbal delivers a dark, dry tonal profile with a fast, explosive attack and a quick, controlled decay. Despite its thin construction, it produces a full-bodied response with a slightly trashy edge, while maintaining a smooth, musical wash. Stick definition is present but sits within the overall sound, making it highly responsive to lighter dynamics and expressive playing. This cymbal is particularly well suited to jazz, fusion, indie and studio applications where nuance, control and tonal character are essential.
