As part of this Custom Classics series, this CC16TRC is made of B10 bronze, which is comprised of 90% copper and 10% tin.

Meinl Classics Custom CC16TRC-B

The combination of the brilliant finish, the visible hammering and the cut-outs (of various sizes), leads to a distinct, trashy sound. Although the sound of this cymbal, with its soft edges, never gets too extreme, it does have a loud, cutting spread around the attack. The intense sound occupies a relatively small frequency range, ensuring that this crash never pollutes the entire tonal spectrum. If you're looking for a crash with a more rugged sound, this Trash Crash is a great addition to your drum kit.
