You'll always make a big splash drumming wise when you let Meinl cymbals do the talking for you. The Mb8 splash cymbals speak ever so clearly and get high marks for producing big sound from small, compact sizes.

All three cymbal sizes give you everything they've got when played and respond with a fast, explosive attack and a nice spread. Reminiscent of paper tearing, the sound these splashes make is almost chime-like, clear and glassy with a focused and penetrating cut that doesn't get overwhelmed by loud vocals and guitars.

From the gleaming finish to the high-tech computerized hammering, the Mb8 series cymbals are a professional’s dream come true in every way. It’s this combination of bronze alloy and precision hammered detail that creates the best possible look and performance, while the cutting, explosive and crystal clear voice raises the bar for other cymbal sounds.

Mb8 Splashes brilliantly showcase Meinl’s long time expertise in manufacturing cymbals out of a B8 bronze alloy and their high energy levels are ideal for hard hitting heavy metal, hard rock, pop and alternative music. Maybe that’s one reason Meinl cymbals have such a loyal following among the world’s best drummers across all musical genres. Count Aaron Gainer of 12 Stones as one of them. His advice? "Work on your meter and your taste. Understand that a song usually isn’t about the drummer. Play to the songs!" His favorite cymbal? Meinl Mb8 Splashes, of course.
