Meinl Byzance B22JBAR: New York vibe

New York has always had a vibrant jazz scene, and this Byzance ride tries to capture the magic of that sound. It has a small bell, leaving more room for the bow and creating an inspiring sound - no brash, biting ping or rock-like attack, but rather a nicely rounded, sweet sound. Its long, shimmering sustain is filled with overtones that subtly ride along with the rhythm, and it possesses a rich-sounding ping that is very nice to listen to. Thanks to the carefully created Meinl B20 bronze alloy and the individual hand-hammering, this jazz ride succeeds in offering you a taste of the Big Apple. No jazz combo should be without it!
