The Meinl B15POH Byzance Polyphonic hi-hat 15" is a hand-hammered hi-hat made of professional B20bronze. This hi-hat is particularly expressive due to its special profile with the thin rim and thick bell in the unfinished Finish. The medium weighting allows for versatile use and thus forms the basis for the name "Polyphonic". Played closed, it produces defined sounds with the perfect blend of Attack and flatness. Slightly open, the added power comes from the unprocessed Bell and dark wash. In addition, the flashy Bell is the foundation for a solid chick when kicked.
