Meinl 18 Crash/Ride Cymbal - HCS Traditional Finish Brass for Drum Set Made in Germany 2-YEAR WARRANTY HCS18CR
- MAJOR UPGRADE FROM "STOCK" STARTER CYMBALS: these are not those distractingly cheap, flimsy prop cymbals that come with most drum sets.
- Meinl HCS cymbals have impressive sound and sturdy feel geared toward beginner/intermediate players.
- WHY IT MATTERS: playing HCS cymbals will sound more like what you hear in actual songs, making the drums even more fun to play.
- plus, they aren't going to fall apart, dent, or bend after a few uses like stock cymbals.
- WHAT'S IN THE BOX: includes one 18"crash/ride cymbal.
- this cymbal fills the gap between a ride and crash, where it's not too thin or too thick for either purpose.
- go from a bright "ping" sound on the top to a wide-open wash (or sustain) when crashing.
- DRIVING THE SOUND: made in Germany with MS63 brass alloy for a clean, bright, and crisp tone.
- substantial thickness with well-formed surface grooves and hammer marks give you a defined sound without clangy or ear-piercing overtones.
- CATCH UP QUICK: HCS exceeds expectations because Meinl brings experience crafting cymbals since 1951.
- we make HCS and other lines in our German factory, and our top-of-the-line professional Byzance cymbals are hand hammered in Turkey from cast B20 bronze.
