I’ve got a pair of 60’s paper thin 14” a’s and they’re my favourite hats ever!! - however the two main cymbalsmiths in Turkey at the time responsible for the legendary K’s eventually left Zildjian and started Istanbul which are hands down my favourite right now. I’ve got an agop signature ride and oooh baby you can definitely trace the lineage back to those sweet sweet original K’s.

@@levysgaycorner352 Different tips (within nylon or wood groups) can sound very differently from each other when used on different cymbals. I carry a small cymbal stick bag for the specific cymbals I use on each gig. These cymbals will depend on the size and type of music played for each venue (large vs small, acoustic jazz or light pop or larger swing or classic rock). My drum set stays the same but the "ammo" used changes as needed. I do not have one specific size or shape of stick, other than length. The conditions control these choices.

Have the 21" Istanbul Agop Jazz Special Edition and love it. Also love Istanbul Signatures. All about that brand. Meinl one is really nice but I played one in a really dull finish much like Big Apple one here(maybe it was the same) but it looked more vintage or rough/ seasoned. It's great but almost the same price as Istanbul in which case I'd still pick Agops. Agops have a way of being two cymbals in one. Great ride and crash characteristics!

Came here for the comparison. Listened hard. Left with a Paiste 20" Traditionals Light Ride. It arrived a few hours ago and I've been putting it through the paces. It is absolutely EXACTLY what I was looking for.. Some believe that Paiste's are too pure and don't have enough individuality. That's why I keep an arsenal of Z's, S's and M's as well. But as a result, my drummers still always comment on the beautiful P's in the arsenal especially for the lack of overtones. DCNH you are doing us a great service.

I liked the Istanbuls the best, and the Sabian the least by a pretty wide margin. I love how trashy the Meinl Jazz Monophonic is, but I find trashy rides often have some weird higher overtones, and the Monophonic is no exception. I'm partial to the Agop Signature for a drier, slightly trashy sound, and the Mel Lewis for a more airy, open sound. Somewhat surprised an Istanbul 30th or K Kerope weren't among the choices.

All these cymbals work well for Jazz Rides. I can find specific compositions that each would excel at. So I'd probably look at which is most versatile. The 21"Istanbul Jazz Special Edition and the 22" Meinl Byzance Jazz Monophonic are a bit too dry and are probably the least flexible. The 22" Istanbul Mel Lewis Ride was low-pitched, with great definition, the crash projected well, smooth sound quality, the wash was present, but not overpowering, there was some sustain, but not continuous. In essence, it was extremely well balanced for a wide variety Jazz, Fusion, and even some pop. It would work well in sessions and even some Rock. I use two different cymbals for jazz rides; an 18" Zildjian rivet Cymbal, (minus the rivets) (ca.1954-1957), and a 22" Zildjian (ca. 1957-1959). Between them, I can pretty much cover anything in the realm of Jazz.

Snare sounds wonderful! How would you guys rate it compared to the Benny Greb signature brass? I’m between the two!

Killer drum, different animals. The Benny is a 13" so it has a more "compressed" sound while the Carlock is more open and airy.

The Mel and the overhammered were may favorites, most impressed with Istanbul overall. That first Meinl was not great though

Well , the Agop Signature sounds amazing ! I d even make it a bit lighter then that to have it even more crashble.. Turkey is at the top for cymbals.. we can all learn from them..

All fine cymbals! But I'm a Zildjian guy. With a few exceptions, they seem to have mastered the balance between stick definition, a usable bell, a pleasant wash, and crashability.
