Meinl 18" Pure Alloy Thin Crash Prato crash 18"

Effortless touch and clean sound. This is Meinl Pure Alloy. A timeless voice formed with fully lathed surfaces allows them to be expressive in virtually any style. Their refined nature has two sides: polished definition met by a velvety wash that encompasses a full tonal spectrum. Shimmering, smooth sounds bounce right along with your stick to create a reactive touch that extends through all dynamic levels. These cymbals cut with agility. Blanketing their superb stick definition is a sustain that plays out with just the right amount of strength and balanced wash.

The Pure Alloy Thin crashes open easily with a bright punch followed by a warm wash, then decay quickly for a short sustain. With the swift sound arc, these crashes speak with a pure tonality but never getting in the way of other voices.
