Whether you're jamming with a band or in the midst of an intense practice session, these cymbals allow you to maintain a nuanced and complex sound. They provide a serious punch that sits comfortably on top of the mix, without the glassy ring that can often be overpowering.

The Classics Custom Dark Cymbals are not just about power, they also offer a dialed-in sustain and a shadowy mosaic of complex sound. Say goodbye to bright overtones and welcome a darker, more profound sound. These cymbals are designed for players who need their cymbals to cut through a dense mix of electric guitars with agility, while their presence echoes the darker nature of a deeply hammered cymbal.

These cymbals owe their unique sound to a combination of extra deep hammering, additional lathing, and the use of B12 bronze. The deep hammering darkens and dries the sound while adding tonal complexity. The additional lathing exposes bands of brightly colored bronze that accent the dark finish and help dial-in overtones. The B12 bronze, an alloy made up of 88% copper and 12% tin, is solid, reliable, and loud without sounding choked when you lay into it.

The 16" Classics Custom Dark Trash China Cymbal, Thin, is aggressive yet dark and warm, making it an ideal choice for power or fusion players. It is part of a large selection of standard and effects cymbals, all made in Germany with the highest standards of craftsmanship. Experience the difference with the Classics Custom Dark Cymbals.
