Meinl Byzance B12S Traditionell Splashcymbal

Allmänt

For drummers who are fond of the traditional, European cymbal sound, German manufacturer Meinl has created the Byzance series. The B12S Traditional Splash is a proud part of this series of high-quality cymbals, where each individual cymbal is hand-hammered for a distinctly unique sound. It has a 12-inch diameter, making it quite large for a splash.

Meinl Byzance B12S: punctuation and wash

The larger size has its effect on the splash's sound, as it sounds almost crash-like. Still, the washy splash noise is the most important characteristic of this cymbal, together with its sharp attack and the short sustain any splash should have. All in all, the B12S is a sizable splash with a deliberate tonal spread that allows you to effectively punctuate certain beats in your grooves with short, sharp accents. Once again displaying the quality of German engineering, this cymbal never loses the traditional European feel.
