Sound Pure's Take

If you’re looking for a crash cymbal with a quick yet buttery attack and an abundance of dark, then this is the cymbal for you! Large hammer marks, low weight, wide lathing, and a sandblasted finish give Meinl’s Vintage Crash Cymbals a fast and complex tone with plenty of lush warmth. These cymbals are full of artistic character and provide the perfect accents to fill sonic space within styles including funk, hip-hop, and fusion.

From Meinl Cymbals

The combination of a sandblasted surface, big hammer marks and thin material enable an outstanding dry wash in a low frequency range with a buttery, soft attack. Exceptional crashes!
