    Default Impression Cymbals

    Gday guys,

    So today, I went n visited a drum shop which I've been meaning to go to for months. Excellent shop. They carry a fair few brands which are not common in Australia and there's a workshop out the back which you can have a wonder around in. Really cool stuff.

    Anyway they had a fair few of these cymbals. The bloke in the shop said that they're made by some blokes that used to work for Bosphorus and decided to go out on their own. 100% hand hammered turk cymbals, they sound really, really good and the prices are fairly reasonable. Might pick up a few one of these days.

    Anyone else heard of em?

    They have a website. There are 10 different series of cymbals that look to be high-end.

    So the drumstore is Access Drumming. Great shop, great service. These guys are the au importers of Impression. IMO the Impression sound just as good if not better than the Paiste Twenty series. Seriously if you want great sound, these cymbals have it. Go and hit em and hear for yourselves.

    Yeah that's the one. How good is Access hey. Best drum shop in Brissie

    Did you head up there for their end of financial year sale? So many bargains.

    I haven't heard of them here in the U.S., but it's always nice to hear about another cymbal company. The more competition there is for the consumer's dollar (or whatever the currency), the more the prices will tend to come down.

    Impression cymbals, made in Istanbul, was started by 4 former Bosphorus artisans. As of date (8-2013), only 3 remain, the 4th leaving the cymbal business. They are made, so it is said, similar to Bosphorus for much less $$

    They actually got bought out by Crescent Cymbals a few months ago now so you might have some issues ordering them lol.
