Meinl 14" China Cymbal - Made in Germany, 2-Year Warranty

The Full Package

MAJOR UPGRADE FROM "STOCK" STARTER CYMBALS: These are not those cheap, flimsy prop cymbals that come with most drum sets. Meinl HCS cymbals offer impressive sound and a sturdy feel, perfect for beginner and intermediate players.

WHY IT MATTERS: Playing HCS cymbals will make your drums sound more like you hear in actual songs, making the playing experience even more enjoyable. Plus, they won't fall apart, dent, or bend after a few uses like stock cymbals.

WHAT'S IN THE BOX: Includes one 14" China cymbal. This China cymbal has a bold, trashy sound that’s perfect for accents and adding energy to your playing. Most players mount it with the edge and bell facing down to get the classic China sound effect.

DRIVING THE SOUND: Made in Germany with MS63 brass alloy, these cymbals produce a clean, bright, and crisp tone. Their substantial thickness and well-formed surface grooves and hammer marks give you a defined sound without clangy or ear-piercing overtones.

CATCH UP QUICK: HCS cymbals exceed expectations thanks to Meinl’s experience crafting cymbals since 1951. We manufacture 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.

ZOOM IN: The surface of HCS cymbals shimmers and shines under light, adding an aesthetic appeal to your kit. They also feature the same logo treatment as our professional lines, including a small laser engraved logo and serial number.

OF NOTE: You can find any sound in the seemingly endless selection of HCS cymbal types. The line covers all essentials in multiple sizes and includes effects cymbals to expand your sound variety.

THE BOTTOM LINE: This is a German-made, top-quality entry-level cymbal that sounds and feels like a more expensive model. It has a long lifespan, even for hard hitters, and fits any musical style.
