When you want to play it loud, the Meinl Mb10 Heavy Soundwave Hihats are definitely up to the task. Part of the affordable Mb10 Series of high quality, general purpose cymbals, this heavier weight hihat cranks up the volume and raises the pitch level to deliver powerful projection in a variety of situations.

If you’re adding it to your existing kit, don’t worry about this heavy hat conflicting sound-wise with other cymbals. It simply gives you more modern and innovative sound choices with which to punctuate your music. The sizzling open sound has a full-bodied, fat chick and a specially designed wavy edged design on the bottom eliminates air lock for maximum clarity as you play.

The secret to the heavy hihat’s clean, modern sound and look lies in the alloy. Mb10 cymbals are precision crafted in Germany from a premium B10 bronze alloy that no one else uses. It’s then finished with a high polish, mirror-like shimmer to give it a contemporary appearance that dazzles under the stage lights. The exceptional lathing reduces weight and provides a faster attack.

All cymbals in the Mb10 Series are precision crafted in Meinl’s state of the art manufacturing facility in Germany and feature special, computer-controlled hammering that ensures outstanding sound consistency and timeless good looks throughout the line.
