My Favourite Ever Cymbal Purchase
Lewis_Parker 21.04.2020
As soon as I heard it used in a live setting, I want to know what it was.
Mike Johnstone calls it 'Thunderbutter' and it is just that! A trashy attack with a warm undertone and great sustain.
I have played a lot of different styles including worship, and it fits right in.

Would absolutely recommend to anyone wanting to properly invest in their cymbals.

A very musical and versatile cymbal!
Jyri 13.09.2013
I love this crash. I first saw Snarky Puppy's Robert "Sput" Searight using it on stage, and it sounded wonderful. I like how it kinda reminds me of a china cymbal when I play it a bit harder. I also find the sound of this cymbal quite inspiring. It literally gives me ideas when I play, and that for me is a sign of a great instrument.

I play many kinds of music, like soft indie/folk, trip hop with an electronic vibe to it, and even some heavy metal, and that is why I need very versatile cymbals. The size, the weight and the hammering of this beast makes this one just like that, versatile and musical. I can even use it as a secondary ride for the softer parts of songs, so it instantly makes music more interesting that way. Even though its quite large, its thin weight allows me to use it very nicely even in the most quiet situations. It works very well with brushes too.

I'd recommend this cymbal to anyone who likes quality cymbals with a lot of character. It's just simply awesome!

Meinl 20" Byzance Extra Thin Crash
Nicolas782 28.04.2013
Un son super explosif avec un long sustain, agréable à entendre à des volumes et des forces de frappes différents. Je l'utilise dans une musique orientée post-rock avec une crash byzance vintage de 22" et une ride istanbul sultan agop 20".
Vraiment satisfait du son de cette cymbale que j'utilise en répétion et que j'ai eu l'occasion d’emmener en studio.
Pour ma part, que du bon. Cymbale très polyvalente qui je pense en comblera plus d'un.
