Overview

Entry-level crash/ride cymbal made with B8 bronze and wide lathing

The MEINL HCS bronze crash-ride cymbal offers a clean stick response and powerful crash. It’s full bodied and warm when played as a ride, with washy ping and complex spread. This makes it great for heavy, wide-open riding to cut through guitars. The washy tone means it can also fill sonic space in jazz, funk and blues. When the player strikes this HCS crash-ride along the edge like a crash, the size and weight make for an explosive sound with long sustain. As part of the HCS series, this crash/ride is made from B8 bronze and formed through lathing, using a wide blade. The alloy and extra lathing combine to create bright and clear tones while balancing sustain. And by keeping costs down, MEINL makes the HCS line accessible to beginners and players looking to expand their sound on a budget.
