'''Background:''' (not to be confused with "STAMBUL 65) STAMBUL comes onto the market in 1932 and is made of nickel silver (in Estonia from 1932 to 1941, in Germany from 1948 to 1957 and in Switzerland from 1957 to 1964).<br>

'''Background:'''  
−
The STAMBUL is an upper class cymbal for the era up to the Second World War.
 
−
Some STAMBULs also carry the brand of dealers or distributors, such as B.Trixon, the German drum manufacturer that PAISTE supplies directly to.<br>
 
−
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.<br>

Most of the Stambuls from the 50s have a bigger, domed shaped bell. The 60s Stambuls have more of the modern, tapered Paiste bell shape. One thing to remember for dating purposes is that a Swiss Stambul can only date back to 1957.<br>
 
−
The first of them have Swiss Made (or some minor variation) at the bottom the metal stamp logo.<br>
 
−
In 1959, this changed to Switzerland at the bottom of the logo and remained that way until 1977.<br>
 
−
Harder to date are the German examples as they go further back in time (to immediately after the end of WWII - 1946/7 seems to be when Michail Paiste went back to making cymbals again) and there were no real variations to the metal stamp logo, although I would hazard a guess that the few that are seen with Made in Germany engraved on them are from when the Swiss factory first open before they decided to go back to the original logo which shows no country of origin.<br>
