Meinl Generation X Crash Cymbals

Meinl's innovative and award-winning Generation X crash cymbals pave the way to a completely new world of revolutionary cymbals. Designed with input and cooperation from some of today's most renowned drummers, the modern, breakthrough sounds these cymbals produce are intentionally different and geared towards advanced, experimental and unconventional drummers who are no longer content with the status quo and want to branch out and explore new sound territories.

Take a look at Generation X crash cymbals and the first thing you notice is the unique appearance. China crashes are defined by large, strategically placed cutouts and a wavy edge that delivers a trashy sound with an aggressive bite. The Safari Crash is a contrasting two cymbal combination that allows you to add white noise and cool special effects. The 16", 17" and 18" Crashes are extremely fast and the wavy edge creates a short sustain that dissipates quickly.

The Generation X series' FX9 alloy construction and their unique shapes and configurations feature a high-tech computerized manufacturing process that ensures the sonic consistency and reliability Meinl is known for.

Play around with the Generation X cymbals and add some new sounds to your drumming repertoire. Perfecting sounds on the Generation X cymbals puts you in elite company with some sick rock drummers like Jeff Gilbert of Kutless, Barry Kerch of Shinedown and Sam Applebaum of Veil of Maya.
