Meinl Cymbal Set Box Pack - HCS Traditional Finish Brass, Made In Germany, 2-YEAR WARRANTY (HCS141620+10)

The HCS brass cymbal set from this drum kit ready package provides the building blocks for drummers to start incorporating cymbals into their set-ups. Included in the box set are a 14" hi-hat pair, a 16" crash, a 20" ride, and a FREE 10" splash. Crafted in Germany with a durable brass alloy, HCS cymbals offer a responsive touch and unmatched sound quality in this range, making them a great choice for beginner and intermediate players.

The hi-hats deliver a crisp "chick" sound with a nice slosh when played open, while the crashes provide a warm, medium-sustain crash tone. The ride cymbal is perfect for that classic, cutting ping with a musical bell. The FREE 10" splash is great for blending in quick accents to your grooves without overpowering.

These cymbals are a major upgrade from the typical "stock" starter cymbals that come with most drum sets. Unlike those distractingly cheap, flimsy prop cymbals, Meinl HCS cymbals have impressive sound and a sturdy feel. Playing with HCS cymbals will make the drums sound more like what you hear in actual songs, making them even more fun to play. Plus, they won't fall apart, dent, or bend after a few uses like stock cymbals.

Crafted with MS63 brass alloy, HCS cymbals deliver a clean, bright, and crisp tone. Their substantial thickness and well-formed surface grooves and hammer marks give them a defined sound without clangy or ear-piercing overtones. The shimmering, shiny surface is also a bonus for those who appreciate the visual appeal of their kit.

Meinl's experience crafting cymbals since 1951 shines through in the HCS line. Made in their German factory, HCS cymbals exceed expectations, with the same logo treatment as their top-of-the-line professional Byzance cymbals, including a small laser-engraved logo and serial number.

The HCS line covers all the essential cymbal types in multiple sizes, along with a variety of effects cymbals that let you expand your sound. Whether you're a beginner or an intermediate player, you can find any sound you're looking for in this seemingly never-ending selection.

In the end, these German-made, top-quality entry-level cymbals resemble more high-end models with their crisp, bright tone and musical feel. They have a long lifespan, even for hard hitters, and can suit any musical style. The HCS cymbal set is a great choice for drummers looking to take their sound to the next level.
