The Byzance Foundry Reserve China Ride delivers an articulate sound and feel that china rides are known for, however, this china can also be delicate and sensitive when needed.

The Byzance Foundry Reserve collection is a limited selection of cymbals created at our Byzance cymbal foundry in Turkey. Inspired from the time when all cymbals were handmade, these cymbals showcase the stunning, sonically rich works of art that our cymbalsmiths create with layers of tonality and nuance; however, that is only half of the beauty, as they are visually striking from the one-of-a-kind hand hammered marks.

Each Byzance Foundry Reserve comes with a pair of Meinl Stick & Brush Standard 5A Drumsticks, a pair of 100% cotton handling gloves, a signed certificate of authenticity, and a personal letter from Mr. Reinhold Meinl.

The Meinl B15JTH Byzance Jazz Thin 15'' Hi-Hats are a high-quality pair of hi-hats from Meinl, featuring hand hammering and a hand lathed surface to produce a warm wash with incredibly clear stick definition that's reminiscent of vintage hats from vinyl records. Both cymbals are crafted from B20 Bronze, providing a bright, focused tone that leans more towards higher frequencies. The B15JTH Hi-Hats consist of a thin top hat and a medium-thin bottom hat. The thin top cymbal provides an incredibly accurate, articulated stick response with a crisp tone whilst the heavier medium-thin bottom cymbal boosts clarity and cut. This combination offers an increase in volume with an incredibly bright, definite, clean stick and pedal definition, resulting in an extremely versatile pair of cymbals.
