Here's a great musical sounding Hand Hammered cymbal that remains controlled. Very nice, TIGHT chime-like attack on this 20".

AND this is a RARE Cymbal too. You hardly ever see the Istanbul Mini Cup.

Posted for your immense delight is this Hard to Find HAND HAMMERED ISTANBUL MEHMET 20" TRADITIONAL Minicup Ride that is in EXCELLENT Condition! Check out the pictures! I am thrilled to report that there are

NO

nicks, cracks, dents or dings on this 20". It's in GREAT shape with a lovely GOLDEN patina that has befriended it!!

Check out the close-ups-this beauty is HEAVILY HAND HAMMERED!! And it glows!

As many of you may know, Mini Bells are controlled both in volume and in overtones. And this 20" Mehmet is no exception.This particular 20" is great because you can just sit on top of it riding.

Weighing in at a lovely 2598 grams this wonder plays like a controlled Medium Ride and yields an prominent stick attack. The brighter, chime-like attack is followed by a warm, MEeeeeellLLLLo00000OOOOw wash that decays beautifully--compliments of the mini bell. And you can lay into this 20" and it will never get away from you. Therein lies its beauty of the Mini Cup. You can swing your ass off on this Mehmet and the stick attack is ALWAYS on top and the overtones FOCUSED and CONTROLLED!!

And that's especially nice on a Hand Hammered cymbal because it is a bit less complex-more focused but it STILL has that Turkish musicality to it.

It has a night, crisp, TIGHT vibe to it.

Obviously this Hard to Find Mehmet Minicup Ride is killer for jazz, blues, trios, ballads, folk, soul, jazz, jazz, and jazz. And it swings beautifully for mellower funk, fusion and even pop and rock. If you have a lot of full rides with big bells, this subtle 20" Mini Bell makes a great alternate smooth ride. Use it ANYTIME you need a great ride that is responsive and CONTROLLED.

There's NO NEED to spend $365 on a Zildjian K Custom when you can play a UNIQUE Hand HAmmered beauty for a TON less money!

So do yourself a favor and grab this Hard to Find tight and focused HAND HAMMERED Istanbul Mehmet 20' Traditional MINI CUP RIDE.

And hang onto it!!! It's a rare one!
