The Meinl 20" Byzance Dark Trash Crash's dark and unlathed surface combined with various sized holes, gives this unique cymbal a trashy tonality and quick decay, but it also has a lower fundamental pitch for an even darker tonality than most trash crashes. Great for quick, trashy accents.
Their sound is dark, and so is their oven-blackened look. Byzance Dark models are intense, with responses ranging from the defined sticking of the rides, to the short, punchy bursts of the crashes. Their unique sonic qualities are ideal for music where dark tone and feel are at the top of the ‘must have’ list.
Dark cymbals are not lathed and have their original appearance and sound characteristic. They are distinguished by an earthy sound with a fairly short sustain.
