Istanbul Mehmet 

dont understand disslikes for this hardworking ppl

Saw that pile of cymbals about a minute in and nearly shit myself. Istanbul Mehmet are the best cymbals EVER.

I love the way that they are so traditional and are not using big machines to do everything for them, im tempted to buy them now!

Спасибо за труд!!!

MY GOD!!!!!!!!!!! this is the best place in the world!!!!!!!!! a thousand millions Cymbales gathering !!!! Dude are you in this video ?

maximum craftsmanship and hospitality, great to see

I like that drummer in the back playing with the hammer. Sounds great.

if that food's half as good as those cymbals, they're having a feast fit for a king!

La gente en Istanbul Mehmet es de lo mas macanuda que hay, una belleza. Los platos no tienen precio...el viaje si! abrazo

Wow simply awesome. This is the reason why I take such pride in playing them and take such good care of them.

Wow amazing. I think im going to support instanbul from here on out. I actually love their sound.

These men are my heroes!

Amazing video man, I am Turkish myself, from istanbul, made me so proud. Well done.

Impresionante lindo todo milenario proceso artesanal gran viaje buen video

Aguanten los Argentinossss, que grandes ahi cayendo en istambul! geniosss!

this is real cymbal making... this shows the quality of the cymbals!

top of the line cymbals, I'm glad to own at least one, and its by far my favorite cymbal I own

Tekemisen meininki :D Don't know how to say that in English :) But the video was so cool, real hand made cymbals.

hand hamering, probably thats why istanbul is the best cymbales quality in the world!

I hope he is a better drummer than a cameraman

The guy running the lathe is wearing no eye protection! Geez!

Those guys must have really strong right arms.

HI, I am at the end wearing a white shirt, eating a rally nice lunch that they cook for us!!

Yes, they are!

I love turkish cymbals!!!

The Turks: great food, lots of sunshine, great cymbals. What more do you want in life?

@blestdrummer Haha I'm a great Paiste fan..but we gotta admit that all cymbals have its distinct tone..Istanbul has a great tone too..I once had a 14" thin crash it was bangin'

para llorar la verdad, increible. Qué hemosa experiencia

Wow. Talk about hand made. They friggin hand hammer them to shape! This factory makes me want to trade in my Zildjian's...... Maybe. Lol. I do love that they're using old school machines and it seems everything is hand made. Do they sound as good as zildjian, sabian, paiste, meinl?

no problem, the one and only factory in the world is located in Istanbul. , maybe you had it wrong. cheers!!

Yikes! Lathing with no eye protection. He must know what he's doing.

La verdad, yo probé unos platillos Istanbul hace poco... y el sonido me enamoro! jeje

But are you visiting a factory in Istanbul, or is the factory in Argentina? Cause I think I heard the employees (cymbalsmiths) speaking Spanish too.
