Meinl Byzance Cymbals

Is your drum kit in need of some traditional sound? Try out the Byzance Traditional cymbal series. This series of cymbals includes hi hats, crash, ride, splash and Chinese cymbals, in sizes from 6 to 24 inches. Whether you’re starting new, replacing pieces, or adding to your drums, the Traditional Series has great options for drummers both new and experienced.

The Byzance Traditional cymbal is fantastic for creating an aggressive sound to be played by high energy players in pretty much any genre, as Meinl suggests the line for alternative, rock, country, pop, jazz, fusion and Latin players.

Meinl Traditional cymbals are among the favorites for many drummers, played by David Atkins with Wolfmother and Chris Adler of Lamb of God.

Byzance Traditional cymbals are made with B20 bronze alloy, making the Traditional line an awesome choice for professional drummers. With 80% copper and 20% tin with traces of silver, these cymbals are made of the hardest material used in cymbal construction, giving you great focus and control.

Each Byzance Traditional is hand hammered into shape. Each cymbal is a unique work of art, because hammer marks can not be exactly duplicated, which means that your sound is individual to you. The completely lathed surface will provide you with amazing resonant smoothness.

The Byzance Traditional line stands in the mid ranges of the Byzance tone range, with slightly dominant mids in the harmonic spectrum. The cymbals are designed to sound similar to more traditional designs.
