Description

The Meinl Byzance 18″ Traditional Medium Thin Crash is made from B20 bronze alloy to create a complex spread of harmonics. When struck the Traditional Medium Thin Crash produces a washy and dark sound filling the frequency spectrum with complex tones. With its high-mid pitch sitting above the drums and filling the top end the drums have room to speak and be heard.A loud attack makes it great for accents whilst a medium sustain makes it useful for complex crash grooves too. Defined by its warm smooth character it is ideal for a range of musical styles including Fusion Pop Rock Jazz Funk and more. The Byzance Traditional Medium Thin Crash sits comfortably in any of these settings cutting through without being harsh.
