Meinl HCS 13″ Hi-Hat Cymbal, Medium, Traditional Finish, Pair

About Meinl HCS Cymbal A versatile Hi-Hat in medium weight. Warm, clean sound and an articulate open Hi-Hat. If you’re ready to play but don’t have much direction or influence yet, you are going to want to begin with Hi-Hat cymbals. Hi-Hats, along with bass and snare drum, form the most basic time-keeping “ingredients” needed for drum set playing. Hi-Hats 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 Hi-Hats (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 Hi-Hats create while giving them a better feel. Look for the “top” and “bottom” stamps to know which goes where on your stand.
