Meinl's Byzance series of hand-crafted cymbals is aimed at professional drummers who know what they want, and the Byzance Jazz subset of cymbals is aimed specifically at jazz drummers. The B13JTH Jazz Thin Hi-hats are part of that line. They are a pair of 13-inch hi-hats with an unlathed bottom cymbal and a hand-hammered finish, and are given a solid core sound thanks to the B20 bronze alloy they're made of.Meinl Byzance B13JTH: dynamic freedomThe jazz sound is a recognisable force in the world of drums. The familiar rounded, warm and mellow sound is featured on countless records and CDs. This pair of hi-hats blends right in with that well-loved jazzy feel. They have a pleasantly soft stick response and volume, while the pedal chick is smooth and not too cutting. As these hats are quite lightweight, they are very comfortable to play and offer an enormous dynamic range, allowing you to use the pedal for intricate nuances. That is exactly what you need in jazz music.

Meinl's Generation X cymbals are mostly designed in collaboration with renowned and gifted drummers, and the GX-12/14TH Benny Greb Trash Hats are no different. This pair of cymbals consists of a 14-inch bottom and a 12-inch top and, as you could probably tell by the name, German drummer extraordinaire Benny Greb was involved in the design process. The result is a pair of auxiliary hi-hats that is usually mounted on the right side of the drum kit (if you play right-handed) and offers bright, cutting accents. The high-quality FX9 alloy guarantees a bright, musical sound and excellent durability.Meinl Generation X GX-12/14THThese Trash Hats are great for real cymbal connoisseurs. The holes in the cymbals give them some added brightness and prevent air lock, where a vacuum between the top and bottom cymbals causes a slow reaction to your pedal presses. Furthermore, these Trash Hats can produce a wide variety of sounds, ranging from trashy to sharp, depending on where you hit the cymbal. It has a rich pedal chick that can serve the music admirably, but can also be quite cutting. This pair of auxiliary hi-hats is sure to be a great addition to your drum kit and a fantastic pair of cymbals for both rhythms and accents.

Making a cymbal requires true craftsmanship. There are numerous factors that influence the sound and feel, such as material, thickness and finish. The B18TC is a high-quality, hand-crafted crash with a traditional finish, from Meinl's Byzance series. Not only does it qualify as a thin crash, but it's also made of B20-bronze, which is very durable and guarantees a great sound.Meinl Byzance B18TCLuckily, there is nothing 'thin' about this crash's sound, which is gloriously dark and washy. The cymbal also provides excellent stick response, and thanks to its slight weight, it's easy to get this cymbal to open up. Furthermore, it has a relatively soft attack and short sustain, and it occupies a fairly narrow frequency range, making it especially well suited for more subtle, lighter styles of music and recording environments.

The average set of cymbals is fairly straightforward. It needs a crash, a ride and maybe even a little splash, and that's about it. That does not have to be the case, however! Within their Byzance series, Meinl has countless interesting cymbals with unique finishes. Take this 20-inch B20EDCH china, for instance, with and extra dry finish. It certainly looks different, but it has a very distinct sound, too!Meinl Byzance B20EDCHWhere most chinas receive traditional lathing, giving them a bright sound, the B20EDCH looks as if it's rusty and the craftsmen at Meinl have been a bit too gung-ho with their hammers. That could not be further from the truth, however, this is simply a china whose voice has dropped. It still sounds plenty aggressive, but the overall sound is even trashier and dirtier, while it encompasses a wide range of frequencies and its sustain has been cut short. Add a very distinct voice to the sound of your drum kit with this extra dry china!

The Extra Dry models from Meinl's professional Byzance series have a pretty striking look to them. The surface of these cymbals features a large number of hammer marks, the result of the production process used to create the Extra Dry Medium Ride in the Meinl facilities in Turkey. The B20EDMR is further left raw and untreated, making it look like it spent some time in a rainy alleyway. But nothing could be further from the truth. This 20-inch cymbal was hand-crafted and finished this way to achieve the desired sound.Meinl Byzance B20EDMRThis medium ride cymbal has an extremely musical, warm sound and a great, direct stick response that gives you a lot of feedback. Compared to cymbals that are heavily polished and lathed, the B20EDMR sound far less shrill. Instead, it is a cymbal with excellent dynamics that sounds reminiscent of cymbals used in recordings in the 60s, but with a nice raw edge to it and limited sustain. This professional Byzance ride offers a very distinct sound that allows you to personalise your setup like never before.
