26” Heartbeat Epic ride cymbal, made by Istanbul Mehmet

The listing

For sale is a 26” Heartbeat Epic series ride cymbal. Medium-thin weight: 3286 grams. This is an excellent handmade Turkish cymbal that I just don’t use much. Heartbeat is a stencil brand whose cymbals are made by Istanbul Mehmet (as Heartbeat’s website say “Our senior partner in Istanbul was trained in his craft by Mikhail Zildjian while hand crafting the famous Turkish K series.” Mehmet Tamdeger was the only guy still alive who had worked under Mikhail Zildjian when Heartbeat wrote that). This is identical to a Mehmet Legend ride, with a small bell and fine lathing. Very good condition, with no cracks or keyholes. Cell phone videos below.

I am willing to ship if the buyer covers all shipping costs. I ship via Pirate Ship and only charge you what they charge me. I live in an apartment, so you couldn’t play it at my place. I’m happy to bring it to your practice space so you can find out how it sounds with your set-up, or I can meet you in a public parking lot, as long as it isn’t too far away from Sellwood.
