- B21TSR - 21" Transition Ride
- B18EDTC - 18" Extra Dry Thin Crash FREE









14" Byzance Extra Dry Medium HihatDistinctive hihat due to its weight relation between top and bottom. Dry and defined, fat chick due to heavy bottom. Light weight top produces a dark stick response with little wash.




20" Byzance Traditional Extra Thin Hammered CrashThe extreme light weight and the extensive hammer patterns result in a dark, trashy sound with a wide spread and a long sustain. An exceptional crash cymbal!




21" Byzance Transition RideSIGNATUREPerfect transition from articulate sticking to wide open crashing while never loosing the stick definition. Clear sticking and a present, but not overpowering, bell. Outstanding versatile ride cymbal.




18" Byzance Extra Dry Thin CrashUnique light weight crash with an extremely dry and low pitched sound. Trashy overtones, soft response with a fast decay creating an overall “dryness.”Byzance SeriesThe warm darkness of traditional hand hammered cymbals is re-imagined with Byzance. Each range is hand crafted by MEINL artisans at our foundry in Turkey, then given sound-enhancing final touches by our craftsmen in Germany. Six different ranges offer a choice of feels and sounds for virtually every style of music. Best of all, with Byzance your sound is all yours, because every Byzance cymbal is a one-of-a-kind.DARK DEFINITIONLiving up to their name, these cymbals are extremely dry, with low-pitched, trashy sounds and short sustain. The raw unlathed surfaces and extensive hand hammering suggest that their sound might be loud and fierce. In reality, the Extra Dry series reveals its dark, earthy tones and comes to life when played at lower volumes.
