Because every beat matters, the 18" Classics Custom Dark Trash Crash Cymbal, Thin, is meticulously crafted by Meinl, a brand synonymous with high-quality percussion instruments. This cymbal is designed to deliver a full attack with a quick decay, complemented by a trashy roar that resonates with every strike. Perfectly suited for rock, pop, and jazz music styles, it's a versatile addition to any professional drum kit.
This innovative cymbal is characterized by its unique design, featuring strategically placed holes. These holes are not just for aesthetics; they serve a crucial role in shaping the cymbal's sound. By removing material from the cymbal, sound waves travel quickly and escape, creating the fast decay this cymbal is renowned for. The size, shape, and placement of the holes also influence the trashy or dark end result, offering a distinctive sound that sets it apart from standard power cymbals.
The 18" Classics Custom Dark Trash Crash Cymbal, Thin, is more than just a percussion instrument; it's an experience. Imagine the energy soaring as you hit the last chorus of the song, the cymbal's sound ripping through the air, yet never overpowering the mix. This is the feeling that inspired the creation of the Classics Custom Dark cymbals. They are designed to deliver power, a dialed-in sustain, and a shadowy mosaic of complex sound, all while eliminating bright overtones.
The cymbal's punchy sound is a result of its extra deep hammering, additional lathing, and the use of B12 bronze alloy, a solid, reliable, and loud alloy that doesn't sound choked when you lay into it. The deep hammering darkens and dries the sound while adding tonal complexity, and the bands of exposed brightly colored bronze accent the dark finish to help dial-in overtones.
The 18" Classics Custom Dark Trash Crash Cymbal, Thin, is aggressive, yet dark and warm, making it an ideal choice for power or fusion players. It's part of a large selection of standard and effects cymbals, all made in Germany, ensuring durability and high-quality sound. Experience the difference with this professional, versatile, and innovative cymbal, available at Adorama, your trusted retailer for top brand musical instruments.
