About Meinl Classics Custom Dark

The 22" Classics Custom Dark Crash-Ride Cymbal, Medium, is a stylish and professional-grade musical instrument, designed for the discerning drummer. Crafted by Meinl, a brand renowned for its high-quality cymbals, this versatile cymbal offers both exceptional crash and ride capabilities in one package.

Experience a clear stick definition underscored by a low hum, and a wide spread that produces a dark, warm sound upon crashing. This cymbal is not your average power cymbal; it's designed to deliver an epic character that you can define in a moment's notice.

Whether you're playing with a band or in the midst of an intense practice session, this cymbal ensures you remain in control of the nuances and complexities of your sound. It allows you to sit comfortably on top of the mix, delivering a serious punch without overpowering with a glassy ring.

The Classics Custom Dark Cymbals are designed with power in mind, offering a dialed-in sustain and a shadowy mosaic of complex sound. Say goodbye to bright overtones and embrace the dark, as these cymbals pack a punch. They are designed for players who need cymbals that cut with agility, providing plenty of snap to be heard among a dense mix of electric guitars, while their presence echoes the darker nature of a deeply hammered cymbal.

These cymbals achieve their unique sound through extra hammering, creating deep craters that darken and dry the sound while adding tonal complexity. Additional lathing exposes bands of brightly colored bronze that accent the dark finish and help dial-in overtones. The use of B12 bronze, a solid, reliable, and loud alloy, ensures the cymbal doesn't sound choked when you lay into it.

Features of this cymbal include B12 bronze alloy composition (88% copper and 12% tin), extra deep hammering, lathe-formed profile, dark finish, and an aggressive yet dark and warm sound. It's suitable for power or fusion players and is part of a large selection of standard and effects cymbals. Made in Germany, this cymbal is a testament to superior craftsmanship and quality.
