The Byzance Foundry Reserve hi-hats feature a thin top over a medium-thin bottom. This weight combination produces a versatile hi-hat that works both in the studio and on stage for many situations, specifically where touch and nuance are prefered. The stick response is warm, fat, and has a nice sizzle when slightly opened. The foot chick is strong and balanced with full tonal range. Perfectly suitable for a wide variety of gigs. Available in sizes 14” and 15”.
The Byzance Foundry Reserve collection is a limited selection of handmade cymbals produced at the Byzance cymbal foundry in Turkey. Inspired by the time when all cymbals were handmade, these cymbals showcase the stunning, sonically rich works of art that Meinl's cymbalsmiths create with layers of tonality and nuance. These unique cymbals are visually striking due to the one-of-a-kind hand hammered marks.
Each Foundry Reserve cymbal comes with a pair of Meinl Stick & Brush Standard 5A drumsticks, a pair of 100% cotton handling gloves, a certificate of authenticity and a personal letter from Mr. Reinhold Meinl.
