Description

The 18″ Extra Dry Thin Crash responds softly with a low-pitched, trashy accent, then fades quickly enough to leave the next notes exposed. Reach for the 20″ Extra Thin Hammered Crash when the transition needs to spread: its light weight and extensive hammering produce a dark, textured sound with a lingering tail. Those different envelopes make the pair useful for changing the feel of an accent without losing the earthy character shared by both cymbals. The Extra Dry model keeps a raw, unlathed surface, while the larger Traditional crash has a lathed finish. Both are shaped by hand hammering and made from B20 bronze.
