This MEINL Byzance Mixed Set Crash Cymbal Pack pairs a 16" dual crash with an 18" extra thin hammered traditional crash, both hand hammered from B20 bronze in Turkey. You'll be struck by the trashy yet smooth tone of the 16" dual crash, its hammered top and lathed bottom delivering a unique shimmering sustain. The 18" extra thin hammered crash will buzz with every hit, the deep hammer marks and ultra-thin profile giving it a melting, trashy punch that melds perfectly with the stick. With their wide dynamic range, these cymbals fit comfortably in any musical situation—from home studio tracking to plugged-in live shows to pure acoustic settings. Part of MEINL's revered Byzance line, they combine centuries-old cymbal-making traditions with modern tonal needs.
