Description


The Byzance Vintage series is crafted from the traditional B20 bronze alloy and features innovative design and a unique sound never before heard before.
It was created with drummers in mind who desire a truly unique sound and the ultimate musical expression.
This is a remarkable, cutting-edge cymbal with a very appealing sound character.

<C Squared Ride / Chris Coleman Signature>
MEINL Cymbal Artist Chris Coleman's signature cymbal has finally been released.
It blends all the best features of Chris's favorite models, the Ride 20 and 22, into a 21 size. It features small holes around the edge of the heavyweight cymbal, which creates a very clear outline, and is designed to balance out the excessively long resonance that can occur with heavyweight cymbals.
This ride cymbal does not require muting with gel or tape, and with its deep overtones and crisp, clear stick attack of Turkish cymbals, it will stand out in any venue, from small jazz clubs to arenas, and will always provide the optimal sound quality to suit the venue.

"I wanted something that could do a lot of different things. I have a lot of rides that I've used that I love, but this means I don't have to carry multiple ride cymbals with me every time I play. This ride has everything I need, covers a lot of venues, and sits great in the mix." - Chris Coleman
