Meinl B22FRCHR Byzance Foundry Reserve 22" China-Ride

The Byzance Foundry China Ride delivers an articulate knock that china rides are known for; however, this china can also be delicate and sensitive when needed due to the thin weight. Don’t be fooled by the weight though as it easily opens to a roar, that you not only hear but feel, due to the large size and complex hand-hammering. The four rivets add just enough sizzle to carry this cymbal along when riding and will be perfect for a long-decay crash accent. Play this cymbal with a mallet, and you will add a whole new dimension of sound to your arsenal.

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. A limited collection of our finest hand-made Turkish cymbals, Byzance Foundry Reserve showcases the stunning, sonically rich works of art our cymbalsmiths create. Tonality and nuance are added with extra hand-hammering, resulting in deep craters that riddle the surfaces. Coupled with wide blade lathing, these cymbals produce a clear, pronounced stick-attack note over a lush bed of even undertones.Made in Turkey from B20 bronze, hand-hammered into shape, wide blade lathing, and traditional finish.
