Inspired from the time when all cymbals were handmade, these cymbals showcase the stunning, sonically rich works of art that our cymbalsmiths create with layers of tonality and nuance; however, that is only half of the beauty, as they are visually striking from the one-of-a-kind hand hammered marks.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eEach smith spends additional time hammering these cymbal blanks to develop a more complex voice within the metal. The extra hammering creates many deep craters across the surface. When this hammering is coupled with the fully lathed top and bottom, the rides produce a clear, dry stick-attack note over a lush bed of low undertones – otherwise known as “the roar.” The hi-hats sizzle with warmth and clarity when played with sticks or the foot, and the crash explodes with a dark fury not found elsewhere in the Byzance family.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eWe intentionally left the top surface free from large logos so that the natural beauty of the hand-hammering artform can be appreciated. Each cymbal leaves the factory packed in a specially designed box to protect the cymbal as it travels from the factory to you.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003ePlease examine the photos closely for additional condition information and\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca title=\"contact us\" href=\"https:\/\/goodhandsdrumshop.com\/pages\/contact\"\u003econtact us\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003ei\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003ef you have any questions that are not answered here or in the photos.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product__description rte quick-add-hidden\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eInternational shipping cost calculations can vary—we'll contact you if the calculated shipping is significantly discrepant from the actual cost.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Meinl","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51065594347835,"sku":null,"price":450.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0703\/9578\/9627\/files\/DSC27715.jpg?v=1774216553","url":"https:\/\/goodhandsdrumshop.com\/products\/meinl-20-byzance-foundry-reserve-light-ride-cymbal-2050g","provider":"Good Hands Drum Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
