Allmänt

As a subset of their Byzance series, Meinl also has a line of high-quality Jazz cymbals. These are all inspired by beloved vintage jazz sounds. By using contemporary manufacturing techniques, they incorporate that vintage sound into professional, modern cymbals like this B16JMTC. It's a Medium Thin Crash that was hand-hammered and designed to produce a warm, musical sound.

Meinl Byzance B16JMTC

The core sound is warm and dark, allowing this crash to blend in especially well in a jazz combo. It has a quick, explosive response and a clear tonal projection. Its short decay, however, ensures that hitting your crash does not muddle up the mix too much. Thanks to its slight weight and jazz finish, the 16-inch Medium Thin Crash is also usable as a light ride cymbal. Finally, this Jazz crash will last you a long, long time, thanks to the durable B20 bronze it was made of.
