Meinl Byzance B18MC-B platillos Brilliant Thin Crash

General

The cymbals from the German manufacturer Meinl's Byzance series each has its own sound and concept, though they are all hand-crafted in Meinl's facility in Turkey. This medium-weight B18MC crash is no exception. It has been polished to a shine to give it a brilliant finish, making it look pretty impressive, especially on a well-lit stage.

In even better news, this smooth-looking finish also affects the cymbal's sound, imbuing the warm, bright sound with some crisp overtones. Furthermore, the cymbal has medium sustain and a balanced overall sound, while its attack puts it at the forefront of the mix. Thanks to its modest sustain, the cymbal will not overstay its welcome, preventing it from muddling the sound with an overkill of shrill intonation. On the contrary, this Byzance crash offers a rich, warm tone that will fit in brilliantly with any contemporary pop, rock or fusion kit.
