Classics Custom Dark cymbals undergo a special finishing process that leaves the cymbals with dark and complex tones along with the clarity, cut and volume that Classics Custom is known to deliver. This same unique twist on the traditional design gives the cymbals a rich, dark appearance. Widely spaced deep hammering and additional lathing round out their tonal qualities, giving them a warmer mix of sound along with an explosive response.
Instant accent. The Meinl Classics Custom 10'' Dark Splash is quick and explosive with a short sustain and dark undertone. Instantly add quick, splashy punches that cut through in any song. The Meinl Classics Custom Dark Splash is ideal for anyone looking for a complex splash that makes a splash.
Featuring widely spaced, deep hammering for dark, complex voicings within the metal. Additional lathing rounds out and refines those tonal qualities to provide a warm attack that retains plenty of cut. The Custom Dark Crash responds immediately with an explosion of brash and trashy tones. The holes help produce a sound that has a more focused frequency range, resulting in a white noise-like effect that decays quickly.
The Dark 18'' China produces loud, dark tones that dominate the mix. The trashy attack with short sustain is perfect for musical moments that demand powerful accents that cut through then fade quickly. The Dark China is also great for effects and more subtle strokes when playing the body of the cymbal. The Classics Custom Dark China has a sound that really stands out among brighter-sounding cymbals.
