Classics Custom cymbals from MEINL are designed to cut above the roar of guitars, doing most of the work for you so you don't have to play as hard to be heard. MEINL utilizes a B10 bronze alloy to make these cymbals pack a loud and bright punch with rich musical tones. Included in this Classics Custom set of cymbals are 14" medium hi hats, a 16" medium crash, 20" medium ride, and a 18" medium crash. These commonly found cymbal sizes will complete a drum set up and offer a full range of sounds for players to dig in and let their voice be heard. The Classics Custom 14" medium hi hats provide a crisp, bright "chick" sound with excellent stick definition. These hi hats have a medium range pitch with plenty of cut and projection that allows them to easily blend well on stage. The 16" and 18" medium crashes have an immediate response with a full-bodied sustain mixed with mid-ranged tones to provide a great overall wash. The 20" medium ride combines a well-defined ping with a shimmering sustain and mid-range pitched undertones. The bell is penetrating, yet not overpowering for adding colorful accents or when the music level has peaked. Classics Custom cymbals are recommended for most styles of music, including Metal, Rock, Pop, Fusion, and Studio. The MEINL cymbal cleaner (model# MCCL) works great to restore and maintain shine on these brilliant finish cymbals.
