About this listing
Here’s a fascinating, gorgeous sounding Meinl Byzance.
A kaleidoscope of colors on this 18”. And you don’t actually get a chance to hear many of these - it’s mostly a lame drop and ship stock photo that will cost you 430! I’m not kidding, these are $430 new!
Well not here! Have a listen to this exact cymbal AND save money!
This is the Byzance version of an ISTANBUL TURK Crash or Jazz Ride - but more colorful with a factory pre - aged finish.
Unlathed, raw and heavily Hand Hammered with a factory corroded finish that’s gorgeous.
And incredibly Dry Semi-Complex Organic 18” Crash that doubles as a very Light Dry Ride.
The weight is 1374 grams and it plays like a Thin to Medium Thin. It sounds very old-world, dry Istanbul K ish. That’s the vibe - organic with a hint of nasty, pre-aged mojo.
Dry. Very Dark. Medium Complex wash that decays quickly. Medium to medium-low in pitch which highs present. Very organic tone.
Supreme stick articulation when you ride upon it.
Meinl describes this cymbal as:“ The Vintage Pure Crash features an overall dry sound character with a relatively fast decay. Unique tones for drummers who want to express themselves. They have a distinctive and earthy look.”
How sexy is that????
This is a killer cymbal - looking and sounding.
Goes from a whisper to a roar with ease.
Amazing condition. No issues. Brand new they look like this because they’re raw. You don’t have to guess at tone and it’s no where NEAR $430!
