Meinl Byzance B13DAH Dark Hi-hats

General

The surface of this hi-hat reminds us a bit of the surface of the moon, as it has a raw, hand-hammered finish. The B13DAH comes from Meinl's Byzance series of professional cymbals that are individually hand-crafted. These particular hi-hats feature a dark finish that does not just give them an imposing look, but influences the sound as well.

Meinl Byzance B13DAH

They sound just as they look - esoteric and dark. Still, this 13-inch pair of hi-hats still offers the overtones that make it stand out in the mix with a direct attack and an intense responsiveness. Thanks to the raw surface, these hats have relatively short sustain with a rich low end that does not saturate the mix. All in all, the Meinl Byzance B13DAH Dark Hi-hats simply exude dark character.
