Meinl Byzance Extra Dry 16" Medium Thin Hi-Hat Cymbal
Living up to their name, these cymbals are extremely dry, with low-pitched, trashy sounds and short sustain. The raw unlathed surfaces and extensive hand hammering suggest that their sound might be loud and fierce. In reality, the Extra Dry series reveals its dark, earthy tones and comes to life when played at lower volumes.
Warm and slightly trashy sound like your favourite old-school recording. Unlathed finish for a vintage grit and sizzle while still being articulate. Sensitive enough to not overpower the mix.
