 Mb20 or Byzance
Hey guys I have a quick question. I play moderately hard and i was thinking about getting a new crash. I currently use Zildjian A Customs but was thinking about getting a thicker crash this time. I was wondering which was better for Punk/Alternative music, an Mb20 heavy 19" or a Byzance medium heavy 19"

I have a 20" MB20 heavy crash and love it. That thing can do just about anything.

+1, the Byzance Hats and ride aren't as hard edged as the MB20, although I really like the MB20 Heavy Ride.

So for harder stuff I should go with the Mb20? Its not too hard, but some of it is pretty loud.

Oh it's loud. Cuts too. Depending on how hard I would go with the MB20 or the Byzance Heavy.

Thanks man, but I'm not a real hard hitter, and have decided on a 19" Medium thin Byzance crash.
