Meinl 12" Classics Custom Dark Trash Splash
Fast, sharp attack with dark, explosive character
The Meinl 12" Classics Custom Dark Trash Splash is built for drummers who want their accents to cut — but with attitude. Combining the aggressive bite of a splash with the raw, trashy edge of a perforated effects cymbal, this is a fast, explosive voice that adds texture and personality to any kit.
Part of Meinl’s hugely popular Classics Custom Dark series, this splash features a dark finish and strategically placed cut-outs that dramatically shorten sustain while boosting attack. The result? A quick, sharp burst of sound that disappears almost instantly — perfect for modern styles where tight articulation and controlled decay matter.
Made from B12 bronze alloy, this cymbal delivers clarity and projection while maintaining that darker tonal character the series is known for. It reacts instantly to lighter strokes but can also handle more aggressive playing when you need your accents to punch through a dense mix.
The “trash” element comes from the cut-outs, which give the cymbal a gritty, slightly distorted edge — ideal for metal, rock, fusion and experimental setups. It’s brilliant stacked with other cymbals too, opening up even more creative textures.
Visually, the dark finish looks stunning under stage lights, with a sleek, modern aesthetic that matches its bold sonic identity.
Whether you’re building a contemporary effects setup or adding sharper punctuation to your grooves, the Meinl 12" Classics Custom Dark Trash Splash is the kind of expressive accent cymbal drummers love discovering at Musicmaker.
