This 17 in Dark Crash from Istanbul Mehmet’s Traditional series is a really solid choice if you’re after a controlled, articulate crash. It’s fantastic for players who need a cymbal that cuts through a mix without being overly splashy – think jazz, funk, or even a more nuanced rock setup. The fully lathed construction gives it a really unique feel and a surprisingly complex sonic character.
