General

All UFIP B20 cymbals are roto-cast and hand-hammered/lathed.

Handmade UFIP cymbals of identical type differ in sound more than, for example, Paiste cymbals, but less than Turkish school cymbals like Istanbul, or Bosphorus.

None of the UFIP cymbals are lacquered or coated.

For more details see the special page on UFIP.
