The Hybridual Masterwave cymbals convince with sharp attack and full sound, thanks to the wavy bottom .

The attack and the complex sound spectrum predestine the Hybridual cymbals for versatile use in studio and on stage, as they are easily controllable at all times. In addition, the Dual Finish from Raw and Brilliant causes a multi-faceted appearance of the cymbals.
