Meinl Byzance Foundry Reserve Cymbals — The Pinnacle of Cymbal Making

The Meinl Byzance Foundry Reserve Cymbals are Meinl's most exclusive cymbal collection — a limited selection of hand-hammered B20 bronze cymbals created directly at the Byzance foundry in Turkey. Inspired by the era when every cymbal was made entirely by hand, each Foundry Reserve cymbal is a unique work of art, showcasing the extraordinary skill of Meinl's master cymbalsmiths. Into Music Store is an authorised Meinl dealer and home to the Meinl Cymbal Lounge in Horncastle, Lincolnshire.

No two Meinl Byzance Foundry Reserve Cymbals are identical. The one-of-a-kind hand-hammered marks give each cymbal a visually striking appearance, while the layers of tonality and nuance built into every piece make them as exceptional to play as they are to look at. These are cymbals for drummers who demand the absolute best.
