Meinl Byzance Dual China Cymbal - 16''

Expanding from the Byzance Extra Dry line, Dual cymbals have quickly risen in popularity and become instantly recognizable for their unique appearance and sound. To start, the center is raw, bearing hand-hammered markings, while the edge is lathed and buffed to a brilliant finish. The sound is similar to the look: trashy, earthy and low at first, ending with a flash of explosive brilliance.

Stunning contrast of extra dry and brilliant finishes with a unique combination of hammering and lathing. This china cuts easily with brilliance, followed by a trashy growl.
