Meinl Byzance Dark 22 inch Big Apple Dark Tradition Light Ride Cymbal

This Byzance Dark 22in Big Apple Dark Tradition Light ride is expressive and responsive. It has a small bell and a steep bow which creates a ‘woody’ stick definition that the unlathed top helps give a unique earthy character to. To compliment this, the bottom of this ride is fully lathed, opening up its crashability while providing a warm foundational tone. All this combines to create a ride that is as complex as it is versatile, fulfilling the role of crash and ride while suiting everything from Jazz to Funk, R&B, Electronic and Studio work. Byzance Dark cymbals are hand-hammered from B20 Alloy, giving each and every Byzance cymbal its own unique sound qualities. An unlathed top furthermore brings out the darker, earthy tonality of this cymbal, while it’s thin weight and large size give it a washy, complex decay.
