Anatolian Dry Series 20" China

Fancy a big, trashy china with real character? Then take a look at this 20" china from Anatolian's Dry Series.

The cymbal has a semi-lathed hammering – starting from an unlathed, raw surface that's then grooved halfway down, giving it that distinctive mix of raw and lathed grooves.

Despite being a full 20 inches, it opens up nicely and is easy to play and control.

The sound is properly wild and trashy – in the best way. Turkish-made chinas generally tend to carry a touch more tone than their Chinese-made counterparts, which are often just pure trash with barely any tone to speak of – and the bigger a china gets, the more tone usually creeps in. Don't worry though: there's still plenty of trash left in this one.

It crashes instantly, and you can really feel it crash. A china that in some ways resembles Anatolian's Trash Crash, just reincarnated as a china.

All in all, a responsive china with a huge range of tonal nuances to work with.
