General
Crash cymbals come in all shapes and sizes, and German cymbal manufacturer Meinl has something for just about everyone. As part of their Byzance series - which consists of carefully crafted, hand-hammered cymbals - they offer a few Vintage Crashes, for instance. This 20-inch B20VC Vintage Crash has a sand-blasted finish, giving it a matte look that clearly shows off its extensive hammering.
Meinl Byzance B20VC
Of course, that sandblasting process served more than just an aesthetic purpose - combined with this cymbal's generous size, it also gives this Vintage Crash a rich, dry sound with a broad low-frequency spread. Furthermore, its attack isn't too sharp, but buttery and soft instead, while it also offers plenty of body and respectable sustain. Finally, as this cymbal is hand-hammered, its unique sound is sure to be a great addition to your setup.
