We’re extremely pleased and excited to now be providing Soultone Handmade Turkish Cymbals to Australian drummers!!!

Soultone cymbals are simply beautiful sounding instruments.

David Sleishman first heard them in LA in January ’11 and after meeting Iki Levy (Soultone founder and owner), a seriously impressed David decided to represent the cymbals in Australia.

We believe that Soultone cymbals sound the way great cymbals of today should. Iki’s passion for quality and innovation certainly matches our own philosophy.

They compliment Sleishman drums perfectly.

As Soultone are handmade by master cymbal smiths in Turkey (the home of the modern cymbal), all the great character and nuances you would expect from high class cymbals are there… along with modern sounds that fit every playing situation.

The range is great. There is a sound for every drummer.

Soultone has ever growing artist roster (no surprise there, as the cymbals are that great : ) including:

Jordan Nuanez (LMFAO), Veronica Bellino (Jeff Beck), George Johnson (Seal), Nick Menza (Megadeth), Mike Baker (Orianthi, Colbie Caillat), Cleon Edwards (Erykah Badu), Jeramaiah Stratton (hed PE), Iajhi Hampden (Macy Gray)... And many more.

Here is a brief run down on the most popular lines:

CUSTOM SERIES… best summed up in one word VERSATILE

 

Such a great mix of warm tonality - crisp crashes, balanced rides (that crash beautifully as well), musically strong hi hats with a fantastic ‘chick’.

You could put Custom Series cymbals in any style of music and they’d sound like they belonged.

 

CUSTOM BRILLIANT SERIES – Bright And Versatile

 

 

 

With a ‘Brilliant’ highly buffed finish, the Custom Brilliant Series is simply a brighter sounding version of the Custom Series.

Clean, glassy and strong. These cymbals deliver a fantastic note that just shimmers. Again, so well balanced in every cymbal. Hard to beat as ‘must haves’

 

EXTREME SERIES – Dark And Cutting

 

With a raw bell and raw edge, the Extreme Series produces a warm, dark and deep tone. The center lathing and hand-hammering of the Extreme Series produces a cutting sound.

These cymbals really do cut! The rides are excellent… loads of stick definition, strong bell and a balanced note. The crashes are full of dark body and can also cut through loud amps with ease.

The hi hats are also dark. They sizzle and cut with ease.

 

GOSPEL SERIES – Bright And Fast!

Beautifully brilliant finished cymbals with oversized raw, heavily hand-hammered bells. The Gospel Series has a faster attack and a clean, bright sustained sound.

The bright and glassy note of these cymbals, combined with the raw hammered bell put them in a league of their own. A fantastic cymbal with fast notes and glassy tones. The rides are special indeed, as the bells are outstanding… stick definition is crystal clear and the wash is finely balanced.

Every type form small splashes to large rides has a brilliant sound.

VINTAGE SERIES – Dark & Traditional

A thinner and wider lathed cymbal, with hand-hammering, that produces a darker, more traditional, sound.

The perfect Jazz/Acoustic cymbal… Very rich in dark tone with nice stick definition. These cymbals are beautiful instruments. Wow!

The VINTAGE OLD SCHOOL PATINA undergoes a treatment to give it a more mellow tone with a dry sound. This replicates cymbals of the 60’s really well… a classic sound that’s both dark and controlled.
