An easy and affordable way for students and beginning drummers to start or add to their Meinl cymbal collection. But, just because you're on a budget doesn't mean you have to sacrifice quality to get a good price.

Meinl's HCS Cymbal set includes a trio of specially matched entry level cymbals that deliver the best possible sounds at an exceptional value. Once you get these cymbals set up and ready for play, you'll rely on them often to help you form and fine tune your musical identity, creativity and expression.

Open the box and you'll find a 14" Hihat that's highly articulate and delivers a warm, clean sound with an open hihat effect. The responsive 16" Crash cymbal has a smooth attack and medium sustain along with a complex spread and a warm feel to infuse your music with attitude and effect. Lastly, the 20" Ride cymbal projects a clean, warm sound with a defined ping and nice bell.

A combination of good looks and stellar performance, the outstanding, German made HCS hihat, crash and ride are made of MS63 alloy for a warm, harmonic and balanced sound. The modern, high-tech computerized manufacturing process gives each HCS China the precision sound characteristics and ensures they consistently exceed your standards as your practice and perform.
