Meinl Classics Custom Dual Medium Crash Cymbal - 18"

Meinl Cymbals Classics Custom Dual 18" Crash (CC18DUC) — Complex, Fast Explosion

A striking look paired with a dark, velvety bite. The Meinl Classics Custom Dual CC18DUC is a professional 18-inch crash cymbal designed for drummers who want a unique sound that bridges the gap between explosive power and warm, trashy character. Made in Germany from a premium B12 bronze alloy, this cymbal undergoes a special manufacturing treatment that leaves the inner center dark and unlathed, while the outer edge is lathed and polished to a brilliant shine. This stunning contrast gives the cymbal a deeply complex, fast-speaking tone that responds immediately to your sticks and vanishes cleanly from the mix.

Key Features

• Innovative Dual-Zone Treatment: Built with a dark, raw finish center and a bright, lathed outer edge, blending short, earthy undertones with a shimmering high-end punch.
• Premium B12 Bronze Composition: Engineered with a robust 88% Copper and 12% Tin alloy mix, ensuring long-term durability and a rich, highly musical voice.
• Fast, Trashy Sound Explosion: Delivers a snappy, aggressive attack that resembles a mixture between a traditional crash and a trash cymbal, perfect for quick accents.
• Short, Focused Decay: The unlathed center section helps to choke out lingering overtones naturally, ensuring your accents don't muddy up low-end instruments or vocals.
• Stunning Visual Presence: The deep black-and-gold aesthetic provides an aggressive, modern look that stands out beautifully on any drum kit setup.
