Don't be fooled by the name 'Legend Dry,' this is funkier than any Saharan camel at the oasis... seriously funky, but incredibly versatile.
Is there anything this cymbal can't do? From jazz, to funk, to rock, this legend dry crash performs so well that I've subsequently bought the 20" crash-ride and also the 15" hi hats, which tone well with the legend dark ride to give depth. Every purchase readily became a new favourite and added to the overall.
Fantastic wash which clears the mix, but doesn't over power the high end, so it blends well with a wide variety of other cymbals, not just the Istanbul Mehmet legend series.
These are handmade Turkish cymbals at their best, so embrace the unique individual character of each cymbal for something genuinely unique and wave goodbye to mass produced factory produced boredom.
Pros
- incredible versatility
- great handmade value at the price you'd normally pay for mass produced factory cymbals
Cons
- longer sustain as you'd expect from an 18" crash
And by supporting one of the few traditional cymbal makers, every purchase helps perpetuate an incredible tradition.
Individuality and creativity for the modern drummer.
