Every Byzance model is hand hammered into shape by cymbal artisans in Turkey, giving each cymbal its own unique and colorful voice. This Byzance Traditional cymbal box pack contains 14" traditional hi hats, 16" traditional medium crash, 20" traditional medium ride and a free 18" Byzance Extra Dry Thin crash.

This Extra Dry Thin crash cymbal is great for adding a contrasting crash sound that works well as an accent cymbal, and it allows players to dig in for trashy riding effects. The Byzance 14" hi-hats deliver an unmatched "chick" sound when played closed along with a full bodied, dark sizzling crash when played loose or open. The 16" medium crash is designed to open up into a warm, full-bodied wash that has an unmatched musical spread with a longer sustain. A 20" medium ride rounds out the set and has a balanced, shimmering stick response with a defined ping and a blend of bright overtones together with dark wash underneath. The bell is penetrating and musical, but not overpowering.

Byzance Traditional cymbals from Meinl are in investment that are sure to stay on your kit as your tastes and styles evolve through time.
