Meinl 10" Byzance Vintage Tr. Splash

I'm a big fan of the Meinl trash crashes, finding them to be really musical and also surprisingly versatile. They're fast and don't need much force to produce a satisfying explosive sound that's quick in and quick out.
The trash splash - new for this year - carries on the same idea - very fast to open up and die away - only obviously it's higher pitched. It reminds me of the way a cat sneezes! That said, it does have a low undertone - and it all adds up to a satisfyingly complex sound. At really low volumes you can almost 'ride' it.
A great addition to the Meinl range. It also blends in very nicely with my Benny Greb sand cymbals.
