Meinl Cymbals B10DUS Byzance Extra Dry 10-Inch Dual Splash Cymbal (VIDEO)

Living up to their name, these cymbals are extremely dry, with low-pitched, trashy sounds and short sustain. The raw unlathed surfaces and extensive hand hammering suggest that their sound might be loud and fierce. In reality, the Extra Dry series reveals its dark, earthy tones and comes to life when played at lower volumes. The Dual Splash is a unique splash cymbal. Fast and sensitive response with a very short decay. Extremely crisp and trashy sound with cutting overtones.
