Meinl Byzance Dual Trash-Crash 18" Dual Finish

The Meinl Byzance Dual Trash-Crash 18" is a hand hammered crash cymbal made of high quality B20 bronze with an elaborate Byzance Dual Finish. This finish consists of the finely lathed and brilliant-polished outer ring and the unlathed area inside. In addition, the underside is also lathed and given a traditional finish. This surface mix creates the unique look and contributes to the sound of the Byzance Dual Trash Crash Cymbals. Thanks to precisely cut sound holes, the Trash-Crash 18" is ideally suited as a trash crash or stack component.

Byzance Dual Trash-Crash 

The Dual Crashes and Crash Rides from the Byzance Extra Dry series offer a visually strong hybrid finish with an unlathed, raw area in the middle and a lathed and painted edge. Different sized hammer marks cause an irregular compression of the material, which adds more complexity to the sound and shortens the sustain. The different surfaces of the Dual Crashes and Crash Rides can be used as different playing zones for ride patterns and crash sounds. This makes them suitable for moderate styles like Jazz, Funk or R'n'B.
