Meinl Byzance Extra Dry Dual Trash 18” Crash Cymbal - Multi-surface Finish

Meinl’s Byzance Extra Dry cymbals have a distinctive, esoteric personality and a unique voice of their own, but Meinl has managed to squeeze even more headroom out of their complex sound. The dual-finish design of these Extra Dry cymbals possesses the brands signature dark and dry timbre but also adds a brilliant energy to their attack. This Meinl Byzance Extra Dry Dual Trash 18” Crash Cymbal pushes this high-contrast sound to even further extremes by adding 10 drilled holes to its centre ring.

The finish on this Trash Crash cymbal is divided into two sonically-balanced rings; the centre section bears a raw finish with hand-hammered peen markings for a low, dusky timbre, and the outer edge is lathed and polished to a brilliant finish which provides a flourish of vibrant energy. The additional holes in the centre reduce the cymbals mass, making it lighter and more responsive, resulting in a deliciously trashy character. This cymbal offers a unique and refreshing sound that is sure to broaden the sonic scope of your setup and provide you with a new expressive way to add emphasis to your attack. 

This 18" Byzance Dual Trash Crash Cymbal has a deliciously dark tone but offers an explosive brilliance with a bright, rapid decay - It's perfect for fast accents without being overwhelming.
