Operating in its current incarnation since 2004 after creating a headquarters in the United States, Istanbul Agop is one of the cymbal industry's leaders in crafting traditional Turksih cymbals. The company was founded by and named after Agop Tomurcuk, who spent decades in Turkey's sole cymbal foundry learning the craft before creating his own company.
Introduced as Istanbul's first beginner cymbal series, the Xist line features B20 alloy and is constructed with pre-poured moulds hammer-finished by hand.
The Brilliant Hi-Hats feature a brighter pitch and presence while retaining a warm character.
This price reflects the pair of hats.
Years of production: 2009-present
Tonal profile: modern, projecting, cutting
Notable features: black logo stamping
