Meinl's Byzance Series Traditional Polyphonic Ride is known for its warm sound and unfinished bell. This 20-inch model packs moderate stick definition and makes it easy to pull out washy sound, making it perfect for pop, rock, Latin, world music and jazz. The bell sounds a lot brighter and fiercer, which is ideal for clear-and-defined accents. This fully hand-hammered, B20 bronze ride is also quite 'crashable' since it keeps unwanted overtones at bay and shapes medium-long sustain.
