20" STRATUS DRY CRASH

20" STRATUS DRY CRASH

The 20" Stratus Dry Crash delivers a controlled, focused attack with rapid decay—essential for drummers who need definition without wash. The extra-thin profile and aggressive hammering protocol produce a dark, textured response that cuts through dense mixes on stage while maintaining musical character. This crash excels in live settings demanding articulate accents and tight control through a full set.

Tone & Sustain Character

Dark tonality and short sustain define this crash's personality, making it responsive to dynamic playing without lingering overtones that blur the pocket. The extra-heavy hammering and polished raw surface create a nuanced, slightly gritty texture that supports both aggressive and subtly shaded articulations—reliable night after night in the venue.

Construction & Design

Built from B20 bronze with a raw top and lathed bottom finish, this cymbal weighs approximately 1628g to 1642g depending on the individual casting.
