Meinl Byzance B16JETC Jazz Extra Thin Crash cymbal

Allmänt

Meinl's extensive assortment of cymbals encompasses countless musical styles and finishes. The B16JETC is a 16-inch Jazz Crash. This model is extra thin - so thin, in fact, that you could bend it with your bare hands (which you should not do). It is part of the Byzance Jazz series, which aims to recapture the vintage jazz sound in a modern cymbal. It was hand-hammered into shape, and the durable B20 bronze gives it an impressive lifespan and a consistent sound.

Meinl Byzance B16JETC

The Extra Thin Jazz Crash is a very lightweight cymbal, which has its effect on its sound and feel. It opens up very easily, and even when you play it with brushes, it sounds just as rich as a thicker cymbal sounds with sticks. When you really lay into it, the B16JETC even has a slightly trashy edge around its musical, jazzy sound. Feel free to experiment with the dynamic range this crash offers you - in fact, it can even work well as a light ride cymbal. All in all, the B16JETC Jazz Extra Thin Crash is a high-quality, warm-sounding lightweight crash that will feel right at home in any professional jazz kit.
