The Definition of Dry!
I tried out a couple of these and wasn't too fond of them. Not that there was anything wrong with them, I'm just not really a fan of unlathed "Turk" style cymbals in general, they tend to sound clanky to my ears. I just wanted to give these ones a shot out of curiosity.
These flat rides definitely had that "Turk" character I don't like, except one of them which was a lot drier and duller than the rest. We're talking cardboard territory here!
So I returned the "Turks" and kept the "Cardboard".
This outlier specimen is one of the weirdest cymbals I own. It's so dry and dull and low pitched it almost doesn't make a sound, but the sizzles make it sparkle a bit nonetheless. It's a specialty item to say the least, it doesn't really fit with any other cymbals known to man, but it's kind of cool in its own quirky way.
The extreme dullness also means it's extremely quiet for a cymbal, and I have to whip it hard to make it keep up even when playing very softly. It's not really useful on a drum kit for this reason, but it's an interesting unusual percussion thing for studio work.
That's the extremely dull outlier I kept though. The more normal ones were a bit louder and would probably work better on a kit.
If you're a fan of "Turks" and flat rides these are right up your alley. The sizzles are a really good idea on a "Turk" by the way, they give back some of the sparkle this style of cymbal lacks.

schön und gut
ich war auf der suche nach einem kompakten ride, als ich diesen schmuckstück entdeckt habe.
es ist im gegensatz zu üblichen becken nur leiccht gewölbt und besitzt keine glocke. zwei nieten sorgen für das im jazz übliche rauschen, das ja nach anschlagpunkt stärker oder schwächer ist.
wunderbar gesrbeitetes becken aus bronze , matt mit kupferanlassfarben.
breiter voller klang, schwer, nicht zu laut.
eine echte klangliche erweiterung, die fehlende glocke reduziert das klangspektrum etwas.

Wow !...
Neat & dark flatride sound for a wide usage (many musical genres) ! Weak to medium volumes fully playable in studios & live settings. Clear, precise with a sweat + very reactive feeling. Fully recommend this size for a dark, crystalline & elegant styles to combine with (sizzles do help !)...
