The 17" Antique looks like a good deal. I might have to try one.

I just got one, it's low pitched and fairly quiet, nice super soft ride to it too

I think the Bosphorus is a paper thin crash. I got one of these on Amazon a while back and a paper thin came in...and it's very thin.

If its the same guy who had them on Ebay...he took my offer...about 230 w/shipping and MA Tax....I heard the crashes on youtube and had to pull the trigger.

I recently bought a 19” Traditional crash and it was supposed to be a thin but I received a cymbal marked paper thin. Strangely, its weight and feel are more like a regular thin. But I have had a paper thin version that was anemic once before.

I have 19" Traditional Paper Thin on the way. I'm hoping it's thin and a bit anemic for playing in a small room.

It’s strange to me that I’ve experienced both. I was expecting a real paper thin this time around but I’m very happy with the cymbal I got.

I thought the "CP" designation in the cymbal above was for "power crash." I might be misremembering, but I thought paper thin was noted differently.

The C is for crash, the P is for paper thin as far as I have been able to tell. I don’t think I’ve ever seen any of these Bosphorus models designated with the term “power crash” although I admit I don’t pay attention to the Gold series which is supposed to be more rock oriented.

The one I got a few months ago came in as a paper thing. Was hoping for something thicker. This was the listing on amazon when I got it:

Just grabbed the last one (17"). This is the smallest cymbal (other than my splash) that I've gotten in a long time. I've had Istanbul Mehmet Sultan crashes which are the same lathed/unlathed type and even the paper thins seemed a little chunkier. Hopefully this one is super thin and opens up easily. For a buck thirty, I'll roll the dice.

Nice deal and I would have probably rather had this, than the 17" antique I just bought for 10 bucks less.

I saw that too. Out of stock though. I have yet to have the patience to order and wait when I see one of these deals.

If you like dry punchy cymbals, that thing is probably really great. Aside from the Agop sigs, I've had the best luck (for my taste) with the Turk style cymbals or maybe just the wire brushed tops like the some of the Origin Dark series by Mehmet. Either way usually unlathed, extra light and flexy.I'm tempted to just buy this one at 140 and be pleasantly surprised when it arrives in July hahaha.


......and I got the Bos ozone too. Steal at 140

 

[Furious Styles]

I definitely misremembered the power crash thing lol. I had a 17" paper thin antique once that was exactly that: paper-thin. Too thin for me.

Just bought these. Great deal as these are $364 everywhere else. Might have to wait a bit as they are ordering more

Snagged the Bos NO 18" flat ride for $157. 18" Samba crash and 19" Turk flat were way too heavy and Masters 20" ride was too light, so hoping this is just right.

That’s just too cheap to pass up!
