Meinl, renowned for its wide range of phenomenal cymbal sounds, is setting new standards in terms of quality and sound as it pursues its self-imposed mission to provide the right cymbal for every drummer. The Byzance series is undoubtedly one of the most popular cymbal series of all. This is due, on the one hand, to the exceptionally high quality of the Byzance cymbals, and, on the other, to the vast selection of different cymbal models available for every conceivable style.
Traditional craftsmanship meets high-tech
Byzance cymbals are manufactured in Turkey according to time-honoured craft traditions, where they are shaped by hand through hammering. Back at the company’s headquarters in Gutenstetten, the premium B20 bronze sheets are then finished using state-of-the-art technology to achieve one of the six different Byzance finishes. With this combination of tradition and high-tech, Byzance cymbals have secured a firm place in every musical style across the globe.
The Vintage Pure Ride Series
Renowned and beloved for their incomparably deep, dark and dry sound, the Byzance Vintage series is being expanded with two new ride cymbal variants: the Vintage Pure Ride and the Vintage Pure Light Ride. With their distinctive appearance and striking sound, they are ideally suited to all musical styles that favour a somewhat more subdued tone. The raw appearance and harmonious sound are the result of a sandblasted surface and an extremely dense hammering pattern.
