Meinl Cymbals B21TSR Byzance 21-Inch Mike Johnston Signature Transition Ride Cymbal (VIDEO)

Product description

• 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
• MIKE JOHNSTON SIGNATURE: the Transition Ride was developed with renowned drummer and instructor, Mike Johnston, who was looking for a ride with a seamless transition from articulate stick definition to a wide-open crash
• EXTRY DRY TOP WITH BRILLIANT BOTTOM: the bottom side is finely lathed and topped with a brilliant polish to add shimmering glow; this also improves both clarity and crash-ability
• ARTICULATE BELL WITH SPECIAL FINISH: the bell of this ride is clear and present, activating the whole cymbal as you play; the bell and top side are lightly polished to give the cymbal a smooth touch and stunning look
• RAW YET REFINED: Byzance Extra Dry cymbals are dry, fast, and trashy with deep complexity; the extensive hand hammering creates uneven thickness for organic overtones
• SIZE AND TYPE: 21" ride
• MODERN MEETS TRADITION: hand hammered with old-world techniques, designed for today’s demands
