General

The cymbals from Meinl's high-quality Byzance series offer excellent durability, partly because of the excellent materials Meinl uses. The B20 bronze alloy the Byzance cymbals are made of is highly durable and brimming with tone, and it will ensure that your cymbals will sound great for years to come. The B16TC-B is a 16-inch thin crash that has been polished to a shine to give it a brilliant finish. It's quite a looker!

Meinl Byzance B16TC-B

You won't need to worry about the sound either, as this crash produces a rich bouquet of overtones. Thanks to its light weight, the stick response is remarkably adequate and offers plenty of room for dynamic nuances. It has a relatively short sustain, so your mix won't get too muddled up every time you hit your crash. Furthermore, this thin crash has a pretty civilised volume, and an overall silky and dark sound. In short, it's an ideal crash for various styles of music and you're ensured of a sound that is easy to listen to and brimming with personality.
