Darker, Dryer Ride Response
Darken your ride tone with a Meinl Byzance Vintage Sand ride sitting in your cymbal configuration. Constructed from Meinl’s premium-grade B20 bronze alloy formula, the warm and extraordinarily full-sounding nature of this ride is praised by percussionists at Sweetwater. The Byzance Vintage Sand ride comes sandblasted on the surface for a mellower response with particularly vivid rhythmic definition for your drumsticks as well. The resulting tonality is very dark and dry, shortening the sustain for a patterning platform that’s still quite articulate but absent of lingering overtones. The Byzance Vintage Sand ride works great as an auxiliary crash cymbal for darker bronze explosions and has been frequented by professionals worldwide, including virtuoso Benny Greb.
