Dark, explosive, and versatile, the 20-inch Meinl Byzance Foundry Reserve crash is perfect for single-cymbal setups. As a crash, it’s quick to speak and eminently musical. As a ride, its dry definition and full-bodied undertones satisfy timekeeping requirements to swing patterns. Most impressive is this 20’s fully lathed, extra-hammered playing surface, which yields darkness, dryness, and complexity never before seen even in the Byzance series. The Byzance Foundry Reserve 20-inch crash shines under the scrutiny of the studio light with a clarity and purity that balances well with the rest of the kit and a touch response that will inspire any drummer in its presence.
Meinl’s Byzance Foundry Reserve collection brings untouched nuance and tonality to the exalted Byzance cymbal series. These handcrafted works of art exhibit layers on layers of texture and range. Their fully lathed playing surfaces feature exhaustive amounts of hand hammering for expanded dryness, darkness, and musical complexity, resulting in a cymbal series that is at once traditional and modern to suit all forms of music. Every Meinl Byzance Foundry Reserve cymbal you buy from Sweetwater ships in a collector’s box with a typed letter from Roland Meinl, a pair of unlacquered cymbal gloves, and a set of Meinl Stick and Brush Standard drumsticks.
