Stambul stamp

Introduction: 1970/71
Discontinued: 1978

Background: Careful craftmanship and choice materials, these are the ingredients which give STAMBUL cymbals their characteristic tone, resonance and response.
They offer high quality and professional features at a reasonable price. Available in a wide range of sizes and in three weights: Thin, Medium and Heavy.
The "NS12" Stambul was replaced by "B8" Stambul in 1971, current thinking for the B8 version is: they copied the manufacturing techniques and sound characteristics from the Giant beat series.
Early 505's were leftover restamped B8 Stambuls

Innovation: Affordable B8 cymbals very similar to the 505's.

Alloy: CuSn8 (Also known as "2002 Bronze")

Quality: Advanced Student Line, intermediate, semi-pro

Production: Cast cymbals using more mass production (automated) manufacturing methods with some manual hammering

Applications: All types of music, particularly pop and rock

Users:

Sound:

Thin

Medium

Heavy

Hi-Hats
