Meinl Byzance Brilliant Thin Crashes are a staple of professional drummers for good reason -- they are engineered to withstand rigorous use yet still maintain their health and good looks over the long haul. The highly polished finish delivers bright, mature overtones with a shorter, more moderate sustain.
Available in five sizes, each one boasts its own unique tonal personality -- the larger the cymbal, the duller and more pronounced the crash. But the amazing sound and smooth tones these cymbals promote is only half the story.
Extremely well-made, Meinl Byzance Brilliant Thin Crashes are handmade in Turkey from a super tough B20 bronze alloy to help resist cracking. Then, they're hand-hammered into shape and lathed by hand to achieve just the right look and tone. They are polished up to six times for a high gloss finish that yields a reflective surface and bright, rich sound that drummers appreciate.
Not just another cymbal, every Meinl cymbal is a unique, handcrafted work of art complete with its own sound characteristics that can never be duplicated.
