Here is a very special ride cymbal from Meinl! The 21" Byzance Transition ride cymbal.is as sonically distinctive as it is beautiful. Designed in collaboration with renowned instructor and performer Mike Johnston, this versatile ride allows for seamless transition between sticking and crashing while maintaining stick articulation. The raw, unlathed surface with heavy hammering yields an earthy, esoteric tone with all sorts of complexity. The medium-thin weight allows for big, dark crashes that speak openly and clearly, while the bell cuts with the perfect amount of darkness. We carry the full line of Meinl Signature cymbals at the Drum Center of Portsmouth
