The Meinl Byzance Vintage Equilibrium 22" Ride is a signature cymbal designed in collaboration with progressive metal drummer Matt Garstka. Constructed from B20 Bronze the Equilibrium ride provides a beautiful mix of natural earthy tones - perfect for a range of applications. The most noticeable feature of this cymbal is the unique aesthetic created by the raw finish on the bell and the traditional finish on the rest of the surface.
The cymbal itself has a great stick attack whilst the hand hammering on the surface creates ear-catching overtones. This clear response and piercing bell tones produced by this ride are perfect for capturing jazz-like stick patterns whilst the crashing ability of this cymbal delivers a balanced tone. The Byzance Vintage Equilibrium Ride is ideal for progressive music although vast tonal abilities make this an incredibly versatile cymbal suiting pop fusion funk and more. A superb choice for any drummer looking for a cymbal that not only looks the part but sounds the part.
