About Meinl Cymbals Byzance

The cymbals of the Byzance series form the lower end of the Meinl Cymbal range in terms of tonality. They all have a dark, deep basic tone in common, varying in intensity depending on the finish or treatment. The sound characteristics of the cymbals are best expressed at a moderate volume, as this allows all the tonal nuances to develop audibly.

The Byzance cymbals are available with brilliant and traditional finish, but also as untreated cymbals with a dark finish called Byzance Dark.

The Byzance Extra Dry are hammered even more raw and intensely in their finish , resulting in a optics that, to the untrained eye, is reminiscent of metal that has slumbered on the seabed for years. The Byzance Dual cymbals combine the interior of the Extra Dry models with a brilliant exterior piece to combine the best of the two processing variants in terms of sound.

In order to simulate an aging process, the Byzance Vintage cymbals were treated with a sandblaster, which results in an interesting matt finish and exciting sound characteristics.

With their deep hammering, the Byzance Jazz cymbals offer a pleasantly soft but also dry and dark sound.

The Byzance Foundry Reserve models are a special features . A small selection of the highest quality cymbals that are hand-hammered by masters of their craft in Turkey and thus become unique in terms of appearance and sound.

About Meinl Cymbals

The Meinl company was founded in 1951 by Roland Meinl as a one-man company for cymbals in a basement workshop. Now family-run in its third generation, Roland Meinl Musikinstrumente has become one of the biggest names in the manufacture of cymbals, percussion instruments and sound therapy instruments with locations in Gutenstetten and Nashville, TN.

Meinl Cymbals are manufactured at two locations . Production is located at the company headquarters in Gutenstetten , Franconia. This was specialized in high-precision automated production and hammering and has been constantly modernized since the new building in 2003. The series, manufactured exclusively in Germany, include HCS, Classics Custom, Classics Custom Dark, Classics Custom Dual as well as Pure Alloy and Pure Alloy Custom.

With the introduction of the traditionally hand-hammered cymbals of the Byzance series in 2000, Meinl entered into a centuries-old tradition of cymbal production in the homeland of cymbal forging - Turkey . Since the new Turkish production facility was built in Samsun in 2019, production has taken place in a state-of-the-art factory. After production there, the cymbals are refined in the German factory and each one is strictly tested for optics and sound .

The cymbals range includes seven higher-level series, which cover a particularly wide range of sounds based on six different alloys. These include: Byzance, Pure Alloy, Classic Custom, HCS, Symphonic/Marching, Generation X and Artist Concept Models.

The range is complemented by drum gear - accessories for drums - from drum carpets to practice pads and embroidery bags to cymbal cleaners and tuning keys. Meinl Cymbals ' endorsees include some of the most successful and well-known drummers of this time, including: Benny Greb, Robert Sput Searight, Matt Garstka, Anika Nilles, Mike Johnston, Jost Nickel, Chris Coleman, Luke Holland, Brann Dailor and Wolfgang Haffner.
