Meinl Cymbals Byzance Traditional Medium Thin Crash Cymbal - 18 inch Reviews
Accent your hits with a legendary combination of attack, sustain, and tonal complexity through the Meinl Byzance Traditional Medium Thin crash cymbal. This bronze beauty boasts a premier B20 alloy formula, crafted with a medium-thin build for a slightly lighter feel that simultaneously creates a bit of sustained relief. The attack, however, is remarkably present, starting off loud and then coating the frequency spectrum with a wash complexity that’s luscious and detailed. With such a perfect blend of tone and response, it’s no wonder that drummers of all expressive realms at Sweetwater are tossing the Byzance Traditional Medium Thin crash on their straight stands — from pop and rock to jazz and world music, it sounds that good!

Great attack with too long sustain
I bought this 18 inch medium thin crash with great hope that it would have less sustain, lighter feel and better dynamic control than the larger 19 inch crash. Instead, this 18 inch is very loud and its sustain doesn't seem to decay fast enough. The attack is explosive. It starts off very loud but it doesn't decay fast enough to my liking. It also feels much heavier and harder to play, relative to my other 18 inch medium thin crashes from Zildjian A Custom and K series.
