{"product_id":"meinl-china-byzance-20-dual-trash-378987","title":"20\" BYZANCE DUAL TRASH CHINA","description":"\u003ch3\u003eHistorical Context and Positioning Within the Range\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eByzance\u003c\/strong\u003e series by Meinl has established itself as a benchmark for drummers seeking a cymbal with an artisanal grain and true personality. The \u003cstrong\u003eDual\u003c\/strong\u003e finish stands out within the range due to its two-tone aesthetic and, above all, its sonic concept: combining a raw, dense, and controlled central zone with brighter, more open edges. This \u003cstrong\u003eDual Trash China 20-inch\u003c\/strong\u003e carries this DNA while adding a more aggressive and contemporary dimension through its cutouts, designed for quick accents, sharp crashes, and expressive effects.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTarget Audience for This Drum\/Instrument\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Meinl Byzance Dual Trash China 20-inch is primarily aimed at \u003cstrong\u003eintermediate to professional drummers\u003c\/strong\u003e who want a high-end effect cymbal that is responsive and immediately usable. It excels in contexts where marked but controlled accents are sought: \u003cstrong\u003epop\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003efunk\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003efusion\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eR\u0026amp;B\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003egospel\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003emodern jazz\u003c\/strong\u003e, and \u003cstrong\u003estudio\u003c\/strong\u003e work. Its relatively contained volume and medium dark timbre also make it an excellent option for those wanting texture without dominating the mix.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFeatures and Innovations\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe \"Trash\" concept here relies on \u003cstrong\u003eregular cutouts\u003c\/strong\u003e that lighten the cymbal and speed up its vibration. The result: a faster response, more \"grain,\" and a \u003cstrong\u003eshorter sustain\u003c\/strong\u003e, very practical when chaining tight accents or breaks that need to remain clear. The \u003cstrong\u003eThin\u003c\/strong\u003e construction further enhances this feeling of flexibility and speed. Regarding the finish, the raw center provides control and an earthy tone, while the bright lathed perimeter opens the sound at impact, with a sharper high-frequency flash.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSound Characteristics\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMade from \u003cstrong\u003eB20 bronze\u003c\/strong\u003e (a traditional alloy of copper and tin) and \u003cstrong\u003ehand-hammered\u003c\/strong\u003e, this Trash China delivers a \u003cstrong\u003ecomplex\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003emusical\u003c\/strong\u003e sound: a dark core, a brighter edge, and the typical \"dirty\" texture of trash cymbals. Its \u003cstrong\u003elow mid pitch\u003c\/strong\u003e helps create wide, deep accents without excessive aggressiveness.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIts behavior is particularly interesting for modern playing: the attack is \u003cstrong\u003efast\u003c\/strong\u003e, the explosion immediate, then the cymbal quickly decays thanks to a \u003cstrong\u003eshort to medium sustain\u003c\/strong\u003e. This limits overlap with crashes, rides, and effects, making the cymbal very effective in the studio. Note: the raw central zone can also allow for a lighter, textured \"ride\" playing style, adding a dry and controlled color to your set.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical
