Handmade Turkish Cymbals

“Leon cymbals are not just things that are ‘hit’ when added to a drum set; each one is an instrument in its own right.”

“I will never forget the first time I had a Leon cymbal under my drumstick. I instantly knew that it was a very special instrument made with good care by tasteful people. Now I'm addicted and I want more.”

“I love the mellow, dark and washy, yet defined sound of these cymbals. When you play, you start to find out how many different types of sounds you can get out them.”

“Magnificent instruments created by a master whose intellectual depth regarding the philosophy of the drum and music is matched only by his profound craftsmanship. Each cymbal is a new journey.”
