Meinl crash cymbal with pronounced character
The Meinl B19FRC Byzance Foundry Reserve 19 Inch Crash is a crash cymbal from a limited selection that highlights the beautiful, rich craft of cymbal making. This 19 inch crash is all about a complex sound with multiple layers of tones and nuances, so you hear plenty of detail in every stroke.
The extra hammering and lathed finish give this Meinl cymbal a highly articulated dry stick attack with deep dark low undertones. Meinl also refers to that character as "the roar", which fits the mix of definition, depth and raw appearance.
