Meinl 18" Pure Alloy Extra Hammered Trash Crash

Pure Alloy
Effortless touch and clean sound. This is Meinl Pure Alloy. A timeless voice formed with fully lathed surfaces allows them to be expressive in virtually any style. Their refined nature has two sides: polished definition met by a velvety wash that encompasses a full tonal spectrum. Shimmering, smooth sounds bounce right along with your stick to create a reactive touch that extends through all dynamic levels. These cymbals cut with agility. Blanketing their superb stick definition is a sustain that plays out with just the right amount of strength and balanced wash.

The Meinl 18" Pure Alloy Extra Hammered Trash Crash's extra-deep hammering allows it to accent with punchy and warm tone. The clean attack is followed by a complex, fast decay. Hole cut-outs boost trashiness and dry the sound. Made in Germany from Pure Alloy bronze with high-tech computerized hammering for consistent tone.
