Getting behind the drums and settling into a steady groove is a moving experience, especially when you’re hitting on all cylinders.
Let Meinl help get you to that place musically with Byzance Dark Hihats. With their untreated and unlathed finish, these raw looking hihats bring a little something extra to your drumming repertoire and gigs with their dark, earthy appearance and esoteric sound characteristics.
These open hihats are distinguished by deep, dark tones that don’t get lost in the mix and a fairly short sustain and sharp chick. Whether played with a foot pedal or enthusiastically thumped with your sticks, Byzance Dark Hihats offer extensive range and deliver the fast response and musical versatility.
These hihats do more than merely enhance your playing style, they help differentiate it from that of your peers. Crafted to Meinl’s exacting standards, each and every cymbal is designed from the drummer’s perspective and infused with the nuances and the details that making playing a pleasure.
Hihats are handmade in Turkey in Meinl’s own smithy by skilled craftsman who start with durable B20 bronze alloy and go from there. The cymbals are hand-hammered into shape for unerring quality and consistent sound aspects you can trust every time you pick up the sticks to play.
