Nice, Bright Ride

I was looking for a ride with a little brighter sound to go with my 20" ride. This cymbal has great stick definition, but it can ring on for quite a while. Overall, a great addition to my kit!

Nice, Bright Ride

Where precision meets versatility, the Meinl HCS 14" Hi-Hat Cymbal pair emerges as a quintessential component for drummers seeking a warm, clean sound with a crisp articulation. These medium-weight cymbals, boasting a traditional finish, exude a bright, shiny appearance that complements their professional-grade performance.

Crafted with meticulous attention to detail in our state-of-the-art facility in Germany, these cymbals are constructed from a durable and musical brass alloy. This material choice ensures a clear tone and balanced sustain, making them a reliable option for drummers of all levels. The HCS 14" Hi-Hat Cymbals are designed to deliver modern sounds that fit any style, from the essential "chick" sound to intricate open Hi-Hat patterns.

The intelligent weighting of these cymbals, with the bottom cymbal being slightly heavier than the top, enhances the crispness of the "chick" sound while providing a superior feel. This thoughtful design allows for a more expressive playing experience, whether you're keeping a steady rhythm or exploring complex grooves.

Drummers will appreciate the clear "top" and "bottom" stamps, which simplify the setup process on a pedal-activated stand. This feature ensures that the cymbals are positioned correctly for optimal sound and performance.
