Meinl Byzance Jazz Extra Thin Crashes are perfectly adaptable as a light ride in a minimalist setup, these versatile cymbals have a dark, washy attack and a fast, full-bodied stick response.
Lightweight, super thin crashes are handcrafted from B20 bronze alloy and are completely hand-hammered into shape to deliver the utmost in clarity, tonality and musicality. They have a regular, uncoated finish and speak with outstanding sound qualities and a short decay so they work well in a variety of studio and concert settings.
Designed to meet the uncompromising demands of drummers everywhere, each Byzance Jazz cymbal is an original piece of art in its own right with unique sound characteristics and smaller and tighter hand-hammered pockmark detail that can never be exactly duplicated from one to the next. Available in three sizes that deliver a complex blend of warm sounds and an overall darkness with a nice touch.
World renowned touring drummer Wolfgang Haffner, who collaborated with Meinl in the creation of the Byzance Jazz series, endorses these crashes by stating they "have very good definition and fit in a lot of musical situations—whether live or in the studio."
