Wuhan – High-Quality B20 Cast Alloy Cymbals
Handcrafted using traditional methods that are two thousand years old.
Polished to a brilliant finish with an understated yet attractive logo. Most cymbals on the market today have Turkish or European influences. However, Wuhan has defined the Eastern sound for centuries. To better understand its popularity, let’s look at Wuhan’s history and some of the products they offer. For over 1,900 years, Wuhan has been making hand-hammered castellated cymbals in China. In fact, the Chinese are credited with inventing the cymbal for use as a musical instrument. Wuhan is well known for its china and gong cymbals. However, many people don’t realize they also produce a line of “Western”-style cymbals. In fact, Universal Percussion, Inc., which owns Wuhan, has contributed to the creation of an excellent line of professional-quality cymbals, including a traditional, rock, and bright series. Wuhan’s porcelain cymbals range in size from 12 to 27 inches. They offer cymbals in 16, 18, 20, and 22 inches. They are described as dark, explosive, and sad, with distinct overtones.
