Meinl Byzance Vintage 10"/12"/14" Smack Stack Cymbals.

The Byzance Vintage Smack Stack features three B20 bronze discs shaped to create a distinctive 'clap' or 'electronic snare sound' sound effect. The stack can be manipulated by adjusting the tension of the cymbal stand’s wing nut.  Increased tension produces a crisp attack and short decay ideal for quick accents, while loose settings yield a longer sustain.  Works well when paired with a snare drum for enhanced back beats, or as an alternative to your snare altogether. The discs are sized 10”, 12”, and 14”.

Specifications

The bottom cymbal is the same size as the top and also features cut out holes, which makes for an ultra trashy effect

Keep the cymbals tight with the wing nut on your cymbal stand, or loosen them up to experiment with different sounds
