Hand hammered in Turkey by skilled artisans, it features a unique design that caters to dynamic performances. Constructed from premium B20 bronze alloy, this 22" ride cymbal delivers a rich and complex tone suitable for refined, nuanced playing.

Perfect for drummers seeking precision and adaptability, this Byzance Brilliant polyphonic ride cymbal elevates your rhythm to professional-grade artistry.
Polyphonic Design Creates Versatile Soundscapes
The Byzance Brilliant polyphonic ride is engineered to adapt to your playing style. Its thin edge allows effortless crashes for fluid dynamic shifts, while the lathed body delivers sweet stick response for intricate patterns.

Brilliant Finish Smooths High Frequencies
Byzance Brilliant cymbals undergo a full lathe process before being polished to a radiant shine.

The result is a cymbal that sits naturally within the mix, blending seamlessly without overpowering other instruments. Whether live or in the studio, this polyphonic ride’s brilliant finish delivers balanced soundscapes with sophistication.
