The Byzance Vintage 20 Pure Crash is an unfinished intensely hand-hammered cymbal with complex musical character and solid durability. The vintage unlathed surface produces a dark raw sound and an incredibly dry tone with a smooth fading release. This makes the Vintage Pure Crash perfect for adding choppy and quick-biting accents to your grooves while really opening up for a bigger sound when using more force. The wide dynamic range and raw defined bell-sound of the Byzance Pure Crash means it also doubles up just as well as a ride.
