About this item

  • HAND HAMMERED IN TURKEY: formed by artisans to refine thickness, shape, tone, and feel—each Byzance cymbal is truly one of a kind
  • B20 BRONZE ALLOY: composed of 80% copper and 20% tin, this alloy produces a rich, complex sound with a wide dynamic range—perfect for nuanced playing
  • DUAL CYMBALS STAND OUT: expanding on the Byzance Extra Dry line, these cymbals are instantly recognizable for their raw, hand-hammered center and lathed, polished edge
  • VISUAL + SONIC IMPACT: the sound is similar to the look—trashy, earthy and low at first, ending with a flash of explosive brilliance
  • FULLY LATHED UNDERSIDE: opens up the sound, and gives the cymbal a softer feel under the stick
  • SIZE AND TYPE: 18" crash
  • MODERN MEETS TRADITION: hand hammered with old-world techniques, designed for today’s demands


Byzance Dual cymbals stand out with their striking look and bold sound. A raw, hand-hammered center meets a lathed, brilliant edge—delivering a trashy, earthy attack that shimmers explosively. Splashes, crashes, trash crashes, hi-hats, and chinas have a fully lathed underside for a smooth, flexible feel, while crash-rides mirror the top for extra clarity. Crafted in Turkey from cast B20 bronze, each cymbal is hand-hammered by skilled artisans.

It’s a combination of dark and stormy… bright and perky. Have a dual crash ride 20” as well and it’s amazing how so dang versatile these cymbals are. Traded most of my sabian and zildjians and will not look back!…30 years+ freelance professional drumming

If you are looking for great sounding, distinctive cymbals: Meinl will not disappoint. It is the direction I go - to find something a little different. The ears 'know'.

This is a very thin cymbal, and for how much it costs, I’m afraid to break it. Just some advice for any other first-time buyer if this cymbal. Sounds good though!
