20" Istanbul Pre-Split Mehmet Agop Medium Ride – 2335g, Green Logo
Condition: Very good, well-cared-for vintage cymbal
A rare gem from before the Istanbul split into Agop and Mehmet, produced during the era when the workshop also crafted cymbals for Zildjian. This ride features the iconic green label and etchings of both master cymbalsmiths, a testament to its heritage and craftsmanship.
Expertly hand-hammered, it delivers the signature Pre-Split Mehmet Agop tone:
Distinct stick attack with a medium-high pitch
Musical, balanced sustain that lingers just enough
Sharp, cutting, and pure bell tone
Perfect for drummers seeking a vintage ride with personality, complexity, and historical significance.
Professionally packed and shipped worldwide from Portugal.
