User questions & answers

Question:	Besides the obvious, what is the difference between the 13 and 14 inch? The 13 are way more
Answer:	The 14 inches give a little more open tone and a louder more bright "chk" sound when you hit it
Question:	What makes this hihat pair good for beginners? Will a seasoned drummer enjoy playing with these ? Are they long lasting
Answer:	I’ve had mine for 2 years on my pearl set, but I have the 14”. I here the 13” have a better sound. If that’s true it’s worth getting them. The 14” sound better than my zbt’s and my B8’s and I’m going to buy another set for my Ludwig drum set! The sound is that great! I’ve been playing for 35yrs and these are built to last! So yes an experienced drummer would be happy with these. I’ve seen them used by great drummers on you tube, that’s what had me convinced how great they are.
Question:	Its just the cymbals right? No Stand
Answer:	That is correct. Just the two Cymbals. You must buy a stand separately.

The memory you'll never forget

This is the sweetest moment of all. The first time you sit down at a drum set is nothing short of life-changing. It's the kind of experience that stays with you forever, and it's no wonder why.

The way the hihats open and close, the fortress of toms and cymbals—it's mind opening, especially for young players. In this moment, your set has to feel just right.

Meinl HCS cymbals are crafted to deliver crystal clear sounds with major advantages that put you steps ahead. Here's how.

Hihat cymbals: the #1 most important cymbals for ANY drum set

If you're ready to play but don't have much direction or influence yet, you are going to want to begin with hihat cymbals. Hihats, along with bass and snare drum, form the most basic time-keeping "ingredients" needed for drum set playing. Hihats are a pair of cymbals mounted on a pedal activated stand that brings them in contact with each other (imagine a "chick" sound).

Meinl HCS hihats (sold as a pair) are specially weighted so the bottom cymbal is slightly heavier than the top cymbal.

Why does this matter?

Having the weight arranged this way enhances the crisp "chick" sound the hihats create while giving them a better feel. Look for the "top" and "bottom" stamps to know which goes where on your stand.

Available in 13" - 15" sizes for the most common personal preferences.

The ride cymbal: from jazz to rock, this cymbal is essential for playing any style of music

The ride cymbal is as important of a time-keeper cymbal as hihats (think of a "ping" sound), and it's often used with hihats to form a basic, starter cymbal set. Ride cymbals typically range from 20" - 22" in diameter, making them the largest cymbal in most setups.

When you're ready to add a ride to your set, we have a few options to carefully consider.

Our standard 20" ride is, by far, the most common type of ride cymbal and will perfectly suit any drummer. With its clean, bright sound and cutting bell (the raised cup in the center), the Meinl HCS ride fits all styles.

Our ride is also available as a 22" for players who prefer larger cymbals.

Crash/rides are also very popular, and we have models available in 18" and 20". This cymbal is a hybrid of a crash cymbal and a ride if you're looking to cover these sounds with one cymbal.

Crash cymbals: build your own unique setup or match your favorite pro

Crashes provide punch, flair, accents, energy, crescendos—you name it. In their most basic form, crash cymbals emphasize the first beat of a measure. They are struck with a glancing blow toward the edge together with a bass drum note. They're also great for playing big, rolling crescendos at the end of a song.

Meinl HCS crashes deliver a bold attack with a balanced sustain (ring), and their response fits with any volume level. Our standard crashes come in 14" - 18" sizes to accommodate any setup or style.

Most professionals have more than one crash in their kit for extra sound options, and HCS crashes come in a variety of sizes and sounds. Smaller HCS crash cymbals give you a high-pitched sound, while our larger crashes deliver a longer sustain with a lower pitch.

Personal preference will help you decide the right size and amount of crashes in your set, but having at least one crash with a hihat and ride is widely considered a basic "complete" set of cymbals.

Splash and effects cymbals: complex sounds outside the standard

HCS splash cymbals are great for adding flashes of cymbal sound where you want a quick response that fades away fast. These come in 8", 10" and 12" sizes.

One of our most popular effects cymbals is our trash crash. This crash cymbal features specially cut-out holes that increase trashiness and "dry" the cymbal out, meaning it reduces the ring. Available in 16" and 18" sizes. Trashy refers to a cymbal sound that is earthy, gritty and dirty.

The most common effects cymbal is the china. This cymbal features an upward facing lip around the edge that gives it a unique gong-like sound. HCS chinas range from 12" - 18".

Next, we have our trash stacks. These cymbals come in pairs and feature hole cut-outs for a sloshy effect when you stack them together on your stand. Great for power and energy. Sizes range from 12" - 16".

Finally, the HCS 8" bell is a great accompaniment to any kit with its ultra-long sustaining ring.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is a manual included for assembly
Answer:	You really don't need one. Just unfold it like a tripod.
Question:	Does the central rod spin (the thin rod where the hihat is clamped)? i will use it with a roland vh11 and this hihat cannot spin
Answer:	The bottom of the rod is threaded and screws into something - if you screw it in tightly enough, it will not spin, but otherwise it can loosen which will cause the rod to spin. I had this issue when I first set it up but after tightening it it seems fine... I'm sure it can loosen from playing though, so if this is a hard requirement then I would steer clera.
Question:	Can it be used with a Roland TD 50kv pro
Answer:	This is a stand alone hi hat stand so there is no reason why it shouldn’t work with any set. It’s a great stand!
Question:	Can the height be adjusted? I can't seem to find a way to lower it and it's uncomfortably high
Answer:	Yes. Loosen the wingnut on the vertical stand then use a tuning key to loosen the locking ring. You should be able to retract the top tube so the bottom high hat is no more than 28 inches from the ground. If this is still too high I suggest stop kneeling and find something to sit on. It's a good stand.

Question:	What is the dimension of the box
Answer:	I personally don't have the box anymore brother, sorry. Maybe someone else can help. God Bless
Question:	What is the alloy ? are there bronze alloy b
Answer:	MS63 brass alloy (63% copper, 37% zinc)
Question:	Does it come with all the necessary washers, felts and screws
Answer:	No, they do not. But don't let that sway you away from these cymbals. I bought them for my kit at church and honestly, they sound like cymbals costing $100's of dollars each. I was amazed at the hi-hats. The sound was so musical when open and crisp when closed. Haven't downloaded any lessons as yet. Sticks are good to go. I don't think you can go wrong with these.

Sometimes brightness needs to be kept in check

We’ve all been there. Your energy is soaring. Maybe you're with a band, and everyone is really clicking, or you've reached the height of your practice session.

You hit the last chorus of the song, and it feels like it's time to rip open the roof above you.

There's no holding back now.

And once it's done, that's when it hits you—you aren't worn out because you haven't been playing through your cymbals. Your sticks may be chewed to pieces but you didn't lose touch with nuance and complexity along the way.

You sat comfortably on top of the mix with a serious punch but without overpowering with a glassy ring.

The best part? You're still ENERGIZED.

This is how we started making Classics Custom Dark cymbals. We put ourselves in the driver's seat and asked how we can get to this feeling. We wanted all the great things that come with power, along with a dialed-in sustain and a shadowy mosaic of complex sound.

Wave goodbye to bright overtones—it's going to get dark.

Classics Custom Dark Cymbals pack a punch. Period.

They are designed for players who need cymbals that cut with agility. They give you plenty of snap to be heard among a dense mix of electric guitars, while their presence echoes the darker nature of a deeply hammered cymbal.

The cymbals do this because of:

• Extra hammering — you'll notice some of the craters are DEEP (hammering darkens and dries the sound while adding tonal complexity)
• Additional lathing — bands of exposed brightly colored bronze accent the dark finish to help dial-in overtones
• The use of B10 bronze — a solid, reliable and loud alloy that doesn't sound choked when you lay into it

Chameleon hihats

Great for players who rely heavily on switching dynamics or styles, Classics Custom Dark hihats have a unique ability to go from rock and metal to fusion and funk.

When energy calls, these hats jump to life and chop through loud mixes without you having to extrude your sound.

If you're in the mood for more subdued 8th note laid-back grooves, these hats will sit back nicely in the mix and play with a flexible feel.

Available in 14" - 16" sizes.

Explosive rides with an edgy, dark tone

You've heard it a thousand times. "A ride that cuts with a nice wash." But maybe you haven't heard about a ride with diamond-like definition and a shadowy, brooding roar.

Fluff veiled in clever adjectives?

Hardly.

Accommodating opposite ends of the spectrum — cutting definition met with darkness and dryness — Classics Custom Dark Rides by Meinl really are the package deal of rides.

Available in 20" - 22" sizes or as a 22" crash/ride.

Punchy splash cymbals

Let's talk about inflection. Whether you're a stand-up comedian or a drummer, communicating it is key to a great performance.

Even with the volume at ELEVEN, nuance must charge through.

And when the neighboring stack of amps begs to differ, you need the right tool to throw a little zest into the impenetrable mix.

We offer a variety of splashes, trash splashes, trash stacks, trash crashes and chinas within Classics Custom Dark to give you plenty of options to outfit your kit with accent cymbals that speak up.

Answer:	It’s 14” hihat cynbals in a medium weight. The PST7 line is limited in their selections and cymbal weights. They are great sounding especially for the price... it’s the same metal formula as the 2002 line at less than half the price!!
Question:	Is the price for both hats top and bottom or just top
Answer:	Both top and bottom hats... well worth every dollar!!. I use these hihats as my “Fixed” second set. I also use a set of 14” 2002 hats as my operational pair. I absolutely love the PST7 line... for the money they are an outstanding option

The memory you'll never forget

This is the sweetest moment of all. The first time you sit down at a drum set is nothing short of life-changing. It's the kind of experience that stays with you forever, and it's no wonder why.

The way the hihats open and close, the fortress of toms and cymbals—it's mind opening, especially for young players. In this moment, your set has to feel just right.

Meinl HCS cymbals are crafted to deliver crystal clear sounds with major advantages that put you steps ahead. Here's how.

Hihat cymbals: the #1 most important cymbals for ANY drum set

If you're ready to play but don't have much direction or influence yet, you are going to want to begin with hihat cymbals. Hihats, along with bass and snare drum, form the most basic time-keeping "ingredients" needed for drum set playing. Hihats are a pair of cymbals mounted on a pedal activated stand that brings them in contact with each other (imagine a "chick" sound).

Meinl HCS hihats (sold as a pair) are specially weighted so the bottom cymbal is slightly heavier than the top cymbal.

Why does this matter?

Having the weight arranged this way enhances the crisp "chick" sound the hihats create while giving them a better feel. Look for the "top" and "bottom" stamps to know which goes where on your stand.

Available in 13" - 15" sizes for the most common personal preferences.

The ride cymbal: from jazz to rock, this cymbal is essential for playing any style of music

The ride cymbal is as important of a time-keeper cymbal as hihats (think of a "ping" sound), and it's often used with hihats to form a basic, starter cymbal set. Ride cymbals typically range from 20" - 22" in diameter, making them the largest cymbal in most setups.

When you're ready to add a ride to your set, we have a few options to carefully consider.

Our standard 20" ride is, by far, the most common type of ride cymbal and will perfectly suit any drummer. With its clean, bright sound and cutting bell (the raised cup in the center), the Meinl HCS ride fits all styles.

Our ride is also available as a 22" for players who prefer larger cymbals.

Crash/rides are also very popular, and we have models available in 18" and 20". This cymbal is a hybrid of a crash cymbal and a ride if you're looking to cover these sounds with one cymbal.

Crash cymbals: build your own unique setup or match your favorite pro

Crashes provide punch, flair, accents, energy, crescendos—you name it. In their most basic form, crash cymbals emphasize the first beat of a measure. They are struck with a glancing blow toward the edge together with a bass drum note. They're also great for playing big, rolling crescendos at the end of a song.

Meinl HCS crashes deliver a bold attack with a balanced sustain (ring), and their response fits with any volume level. Our standard crashes come in 14" - 18" sizes to accommodate any setup or style.

Most professionals have more than one crash in their kit for extra sound options, and HCS crashes come in a variety of sizes and sounds. Smaller HCS crash cymbals give you a high-pitched sound, while our larger crashes deliver a longer sustain with a lower pitch.

Personal preference will help you decide the right size and amount of crashes in your set, but having at least one crash with a hihat and ride is widely considered a basic "complete" set of cymbals.

Splash and effects cymbals: complex sounds outside the standard

HCS splash cymbals are great for adding flashes of cymbal sound where you want a quick response that fades away fast. These come in 8", 10" and 12" sizes.

One of our most popular effects cymbals is our trash crash. This crash cymbal features specially cut-out holes that increase trashiness and "dry" the cymbal out, meaning it reduces the ring. Available in 16" and 18" sizes. Trashy refers to a cymbal sound that is earthy, gritty and dirty.

The most common effects cymbal is the china. This cymbal features an upward facing lip around the edge that gives it a unique gong-like sound. HCS chinas range from 12" - 18".

Next, we have our trash stacks. These cymbals come in pairs and feature hole cut-outs for a sloshy effect when you stack them together on your stand. Great for power and energy. Sizes range from 12" - 16".

Finally, the HCS 8" bell is a great accompaniment to any kit with its ultra-long sustaining ring.

Answer:	This stand does not swivel.
