CRASH PLATE This extra-thin hammered Crash features a custom smoked bronze top and shiny bottom, plus a slim weight and oversized bow hammering. Producing a velvety crash under the stick due to the thinner weight, this cymbal easily speaks from a whisper to a roar. The additional hammering works on dark tone and warmth. Pure Alloy Custom is a unique series that offers smooth tonality, great under-stick feel, and a distinctive look on any drum kit. They produce a slightly softer attack with a solid body and quick decay, while maintaining the bright shine and sustain Pure Alloy is known for. Made in Germany from pure bronze alloy and hammered into shape.
