Meinl hi-hat cymbals with a warm, defined character
The Meinl 14" Byzance Sand Hihats were developed in collaboration with Benny Greb and immediately stand out for their sandblasted finish and the proportions within the series. That combination gives this hi-hat a warm, defined sound with a clear balance between new and old tonal colors.
This gives you a hi-hat cymbal that works across a wide range of situations and fits almost any musical style. If you are looking for a 14 inch hi-hat with character, while still keeping control and definition, these Meinl Byzance Sand Hihats are a strong option.
14 inch hi-hat with clear articulation
On these Sand hihats, the top cymbal is lighter and the bottom cymbal is heavier. You notice that in the articulation: stick attacks come through clearly, and the familiar crispy chick sound stands out nicely when you close the pedal.
The 14" size is a popular format for drummers who want a hi-hat with a familiar response and versatile use. At Magna Music, you can also get personal advice from staff who are players themselves if you want to compare different hi-hat cymbals.
