Express Yourself with the Meinl 20-Inch Byzance Traditional Polyphonic Crash Cymbal

The Meinl Byzance Traditional crash cymbals are hand-hammered for a unique sound. They are expressively dark crashes with thin edges but thicker unlathed bells. Projecting quickly in an explosive blast, and then immediately coming down to a quiet roar and short sustain. The bell offers another sonic voice with penetrating attack and volume when played alone.
