If you want a cymbal for angry, loud and aggressive accents, then you need a china that is fit for the job. Some models are too big and bulky, while others are too thin and dainty. The Meinl Byzance B18CH is a china that is crafted in a traditional fashion, offering a trashy, yet balanced sound. It was hand-hammered into shape and made of the highly durable B20 bronze alloy, consisting of 80% copper and 20% tin, guaranteeing that your cymbal will last you for years.
Meinl Byzance B18CH
Play it safe and use hearing protection, as this china is seriously loud! Its generous, 18-inch diameter brings with it a trashy core tone that carries quite well. It's a cymbal that is not afraid to speak up, but that won't overstay its welcome and muddle up the mix. Furthermore, the attack is as aggressive and brash as you'd expect from a cymbal of this calibre, and it has a complex spread and lengthy sustain. Enjoy the rich, ferocious character of this professional china cymbal!
