These Italian made Tosco cymbals are in great condition. Part of the Ufip company who also manufactured cymbals for Sabian. Probably made in the early 1980′s and from a top end B20 cast alloy, these cymbals really have a warm, full sound.

Finding the right drum kit is simple: just use the Phrase Preview function to hear a short demo for each kit. Each kit’s sounds can be enhanced using 15 types of built-in Ambience effects and compression.
