{"product_id":"10-dark-splash-classics-custom-dark","title":"Meinl Classics Custom Dark 10\" Splash","description":"\u003ch2\u003eBig Accent, Dark Twist\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost splash cymbals go bright and shimmery — that's the whole point, right? Fast attack, quick shimmer, get in, get out. But the Meinl Classics Custom Dark 10\" Splash has a different idea. It still gives you that immediate, explosive pop you need to punch through a busy mix, but the overtones that follow lean darker and warmer than you'd expect from a splash this size.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you've ever felt like your splash was too glassy or too \"tinny\" against a heavy guitar-driven sound, this one's worth your attention. The dark finish and special lathing process pull out lower harmonics during the sustain, giving the cymbal a more complex, layered character — even though that sustain is still plenty short to keep things clean and precise.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a natural fit for rock, metal, pop, and fusion drummers who want an accent cymbal that blends into a darker-toned kit without sticking out like a sore thumb.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eB12 Bronze — Loud, Clear, and Built to Last\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe CC10DAS is made from B12 bronze, the alloy at the heart of Meinl's Classics Custom line. B12's higher copper-to-tin ratio gives it a bright, cutting attack with complex upper harmonics — the kind of clarity that lets you hear the cymbal even when guitars and bass are pushing hard. You won't have to hit harder just to be heard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eManufactured in Germany using high-tech computerized hammering, each cymbal comes out with consistent tone and even response from center to edge. The result is a splash you can rely on night after night without it sounding dull or unpredictable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eDark Finish, Distinctive Look and Sound\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \"Dark\" in Classics Custom Dark isn't just a label — it describes both the aesthetic and the sonic character. Meinl's special lathing and finishing process actively shapes the cymbal's overtones, pushing them toward darker, moodier territory while keeping the attack crisp and articulate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt 10\" with a medium weight, this splash is sized for a focused, musical response. The short sustain means it speaks fast and gets out of the way — ideal for ghost note accents, fills, and syncopated punctuation where you need definition without clutter. Players often find a splash at this size blends naturally alongside larger crashes without competing for sonic real estate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Features:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries:\u003c\/strong\u003e Classics Custom Dark\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10\" Splash\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e Medium\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e B12 bronze alloy\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dark\/Natural striped finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAttack:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bright and immediate with dark, complex overtones\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSustain:\u003c\/strong\u003e Short — ideal for fast, clean accents\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturing:\u003c\/strong\u003e Made in Germany using high-tech computerized hammering\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMusic Styles:\u003c\/strong\u003e Metal, rock, pop, fusion, studio\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eModel Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e CC10DAS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Meinl\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eModel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Classics Custom Dark 10\" Splash\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSKU:\u003c\/strong\u003e CC10DAS\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e New\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSince 1872, C.A.
