The MEINL Classics Custom Dark ride cymbal delivers a powerful, articulate attack with a cutting sound that projects over dense mixes with ease. Yet a special dark patina finish coaxes out rich, complex overtones with a warm, earthy sustain—lending a unique character to this versatile ride.

Its unlathed surface and subtle hammering provide a balanced blend of articulation and wash for expressive playing. The size offers ample surface area for crashing, while maintaining a responsive feel for defined stick patterns. With its balanced profile, this lightweight yet durable ride encourages an inspired performance across a wide range of genres.
