MEINLMatt Garstka Signature Byzance Equilibrium Hi-Hat Cymbal Pair
1/5
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Built as a matched hi-hat pair, the Matt Garstka Signature Byzance Equilibrium combines contrasting surface treatments across each cymbal. Lathed zones add brightness, unlathed areas bring more attack and bite, and sandblasted sections keep the overall response dry. Six holes around the bottom bell reinforce the foot chick. Under the stick, it moves from a loose, sloshy open sound to a tight, crisp attack, giving drummers a broad dynamic range from one pair.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Drummers moving between open, sloshy passages and tightly articulated hi-hat parts within the same performance.
- Players who want pronounced stick attack, dry overall character, and a strong pedal chick.
