The \u003cstrong\u003ePure Alloy\u003c\/strong\u003e series embodies this philosophy: offering a modern, reliable, and highly musical cymbal, designed to provide a \u003cstrong\u003eclean sound\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eeffortless feel\u003c\/strong\u003e. The \u003cstrong\u003eExtra Hammered\u003c\/strong\u003e version enhances the cymbal's personality with pronounced hammering, while maintaining the \"all-rounder\" spirit of the range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWho This Drum\/Instrument Is For\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis crash cymbal is aimed both at \u003cstrong\u003eintermediate\u003c\/strong\u003e drummers seeking an effective and easy-to-control main crash, and at \u003cstrong\u003eadvanced\u003c\/strong\u003e musicians who want an expressive crash capable of fitting into varied contexts. It works particularly well in pop, rock, funk, fusion, worship, contemporary music, and studio settings, thanks to its \u003cstrong\u003edefinition\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eharmonic balance\u003c\/strong\u003e that facilitate integration into a mix.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFeatures and Innovations\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe concept of this 16 Crash is based on a combination of \u003cstrong\u003eversatility\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003echaracter\u003c\/strong\u003e. The \"Extra Hammered\" hammering increases the cymbal's richness and its ability to \"speak\" quickly, while maintaining excellent clarity. One of the highlights of the Pure Alloy series is the presence of \u003cstrong\u003etwo faces\u003c\/strong\u003e offering different responses: one more polished, designed to open up the timbral palette, and the other more dynamic, ideal for varied attacks and exploring multiple colors with the stick depending on the angle and striking area.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSound\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMade from \u003cstrong\u003ePure Alloy Bronze\u003c\/strong\u003e, this crash aims for a \u003cstrong\u003eclean\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003ebalanced\u003c\/strong\u003e sound, with clear definition and musicality that remains controllable even when played loudly. The pronounced hammering adds more complexity to the sustain, while giving a more \"alive\" sensation under the stick.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt 16 inches, it offers an excellent compromise: quick opening, sufficient sonic width to mark accents, and a precise enough response to serve both as a main and secondary crash. The cymbal maintains a \u003cstrong\u003eharmonic balance\u003c\/strong\u003e that avoids harsh frequencies and facilitates integration into very different setups, from rehearsal to stage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cstyle\u003e@media(max-width:632px){table[data-wb-spec]{display:grid;grid-template-columns:minmax(0,1fr) minmax(0,1fr)}table[data-wb-spec] colgroup{display:none}table[data-wb-spec] tbody,table[data-wb-spec] tr{display:contents}table[data-wb-spec] td{display:block;overflow-wrap:anywhere;grid-row:var(--wb-l);background-color:var(--wb-lb)}table[data-wb-spec] td[data-r]{grid-row:var(--wb-r);background-color:var(--wb-rb)}table[data-wb-spec] td[colspan=\"2\"]{grid-column:1\/-1}table[data-wb-spec] td:empty{display:none}}\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003ctable data-wb-spec style=\"width:100%;table-layout:fixed\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:1;--wb-r:5;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:var(--wb-neutral-50)\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eType\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eCrash cymbal\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAlloy\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003ePure Alloy Bronze\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:transparent;--wb-l:2;--wb-r:6;--wb-lb:transparent;--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003e16 inches\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturing\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eMade in Germany\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:3;--wb-r:7;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:var(--wb-neutral-50)\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003etraditional\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStyles\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003efor all styles\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:transparent;--wb-l:4;--wb-r:8;--wb-lb:transparent;--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHammering\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eExtra Hammered\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r colspan=\"2\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Meinl","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54361482985747,"sku":"388374","price":266.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0984\/0872\/6803\/files\/709e437f4bdab7e04291f97f9326de08a3c329f7_PA16EHC.jpg?v=1792644066","url":"https:\/\/woodbrass.shop\/products\/meinl-crash-pure-alloy-16-extra-hammered-388374","provider":"Woodbrass.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
