The Custom Dark Trash China 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. Meinl's consistent manufacturing methods ensure the Classics Custom Dark cymbals provide unmatched versatility, sound quality, and striking aesthetics for your kit.

The Meinl Classics Custom Dark 22” Ride Cymbal packs a fantastic range of smooth, dark tones into its uniquely lathed design. This ride has it all - great stick definition, loud and cutting attack and a warm, rich wash.

With plenty of attack and aggression, this ride is ideal for heavier genres of music but still possesses a maturity and composure that services lighter musical genres. Its highly responsive feel and refined musical tones make for great delicate stickwork, but open up on this dark horse and it will drive your grooves with stunning power.  

This cymbal’s unique look is a bi-product of its manufacturing process. First, the cymbal is shaped using pressure-point tech, then precision-hammered with pinpoint accuracy before receiving additional lathing. 

The 10" Dark Trash Splash combines its B10 Bronze alloy with a hole cutout design to excellent effect. This provides the cutting attack, bright decay and complex tones that you can expect from the CC10DATRS Splash. It'll prove a force in rock, metal, fusion and all other hard-hitting genres
