Meinl CC18HDACH

Meinl Classic Custom Dark 18" Heavy China - CC18HDACH.
Medium, short China sound with plenty of volume and short sustain for “trashy” tones and strong accents.
Extra-wide “lip” for an even trashier China sound! The 18" Dark Heavy China is manufactured using a special heat treatment that brings out the broad sound spectrum of the B10 alloy and, as an added bonus, gives the cymbals a sleek, dark appearance. The Dark cymbals have a fast attack, are bright with a distinct shimmer, and the extra hammering provides a fuller low end. Dark crashes are suitable for multiple genres such as Rock, Metal, Pop, and Fusion.
