The Meinl Byzance Jazz 18'' Tradition Light Crash is the ideal crash cymbal for any jazz kit, providing a complementary sound when used with traditional jazz sounding gear, but working just as well in a modern studio setting. The sizzling, washy tones and distinct but soft stick response provide a sophisticated, warm character even at lower dynamics. The Tradition Light Crash is an incredibly light crash, meaning it won't add much weight to your cymbal setup but will add plenty of complex character to you music.
