Product Description

Crash cymbal Classics Custom Dark - the Classics Custom Dark trash crash is an immensely versatile cymbal, especially because it has holes that dry up the sustain, and can be set up on its own or in a stack for a trashy accent.
hammered with extra force - an advanced finishing process results in an attack with shadowy tones and plenty of presence - extra deep hammering adds depth to this cymbal by shaping warmth and dryness with its own style.
Cymbals with explosive power - Classics Custom Dark cymbals open up for an energetic drive at loud dynamics, making them a great choice for high octane styles such as
Featuring a natural color with a dark finish, B10 bronze has a uniform sound and cut through dense mixes easily. B10 bronze has 90% copper, 10% tin, and the lathe marks that accent the dark finish bring out the natural color of the bronze.
We offer a unique dark finish that is a part of the cymbal making process, not just a coating. The dark finish will resist fading over time, so it can be played with, traveled with and even buff (for us who like our gear to look new).
We make our cymbals using 100% renewable energy in our German factory with a lathe formed profile, extra hammering, wide blade lathing, and a dark finish - we use 100% renewable energy to make our cymbals.

This effect cymbal is awesome
5/5

This sounds like a bomb going off! Playing a groove on it or using it as an accent cymbal works well. Thickness is slightly thinner than that of the china cymbal, but a little thicker than regular crashes. In this case, the cymbal cracked from one hole to another (not from the edge)

I am an experienced drummer and I play these cymbals with only my band. It's impossible for a cymbal to break after 10 band performance sessions if we rehearse (not even) 1 time a week for 2 hours. The cymbal had a great tone and I was very disappointed. My next step is to see if they honor the 2 year warranty that it says it carries.

Update The cymbal was replaced by Meinl on 12/2020, and I'm extremely happy with it. The cymbal I use most often in my setup is definitely my favorite. My band @hysteria can be found on Twitter. We're going to New York to hear what it sounds like.

You don't hear the sound in the video as you would in real life
4/5

That's not to say I don't The video demonstration includes all the sound you hear, however, it also has a lot of other sound, even if the video itself excludes it. In addition, it resonates much more highly than what is shown in the video. Although they record in a professional studio, I believe that there should still be a full sound test in order for us to make an informed purchasing decision. In the absence of that, we would all be buying cymbals at random. Now, I am worried about my next cymbal purchase, since I got lucky this time, but I have been good so far.

A custom dark crash for /m/meinl
5/5

Thanks for your attention-to-detail, my custom dark looks wonderful and cuts through my Meinl set while I play. Looking forward to receiving more customs from you.

The cymbal sounds good
5/5

It's great to hear the cymbals again! This is a nice I received the order with a tiny scratch in the bell portion, which is the only negative thing about it.
