Istanbul Mehmet Cymbals Legend Dry CrashRide 20", LDRY-CR20

The Istanbul Legend Dry CrashRide 20" is a crash/ride cymbal made of high-quality B20 bronze in a brilliant finish and impresses with its complex sound. The particularly shallowly lathed cymbal ("Shallow lathing") is completely covered with hammer marks, creating the typical Legend Dry sound: very dry with a shortened sustain. This Crash/Ride from Istanbul refines the sound of every drum set, whether in the rehearsal room, in the studio or live on stage.

The complex and modern sound serves almost every musical style, thanks to its dark, dry timbre it is particularly suitable for jazz, fusion and funk.

Legend Dry - A small series with character

A special feature of the Legend Dry cymbal series is the way the cymbals are lathed and hammered. Even though the profile and weight are based on the well-known Legend cymbals, the extremely flat lathing process gives the cymbals a unique surface. Together with the hammer marks, which reach up to the top for a dry and modern sound, this creates the Legend Dry Sound, a real unique selling point.

Manufacturing by hand in Turkey

Like all Istanbul Mehmet cymbals, the Legend Dry versions are 100% handmade in Turkey. Old tradition meets modern and innovative approaches to achieve the best results. The classic B20 alloy, which is used as standard in most professional cymbal series, is used.
