Meinl Pure Alloy 17" Medium Crash

I bought this crash to brighten my Meinl Classic Custom Dark cymbals. Well not only it does the job, this turned out to be extremely universal crash. I started to used it more and more on lyrical parts, blues songs... It has an amazing bell, very soft and tender wash, yet extremely reactive and cutting sound on demand. There is nothing in it that is too much, I tried it on almost every possible style and its amazing. Never tried it with other cymbals from it series, so don't know about the others, but combined with mine, it completes them perfectly...

This crash cymbal is a workhorse. Very clean sound, with subtle supporting undertones. Great wash, and responds well to the tip if you want to do some accent/variations in there!
