Meinl 15" Byzance Polyphonic Brilliant Hihat

The Meinl Byzance Polyphonic Brilliant 15″ Hi-Hat brings a premium-level hi-hat experience to drummers who demand clarity, sophistication and dynamic versatility. Crafted in B20 bronze with a brilliant finish, this pair offers crisp articulation when closed, and rich, musical wash when opened. With its hand-hammered design and refined build, it’s capable of supporting anything from funk and pop to fusion and rock, while still giving studio-worthy nuance.

Whether you’re playing tight groove work or expressive open hi-hat patterns, this model gives you a hi-hat that can cut through clearly when needed, yet offers musicality and tonal depth when you leave it open. Its size, material and finish combine to deliver an elevated experience for drummers looking beyond the standard 14″ hi-hat options.
