The MEINL Classics Custom Dark hi-hat cymbals provide serious drummers with a unique sonic experience. Constructed from B10 bronze, these 15" hi-hats combine a bright, cutting attack with warm, sloshy undertones thanks to their special dark finish. Not only do they cut through dense mixes with ease, their complex overtones add texture and depth to your playing.

Premium Bronze Construction for Power and Tone

MEINL utilizes high-quality B10 bronze to craft the custom dark hi-hats, allowing them to deliver a bold, punchy sound with rich musicality. The bronze alloy provides the volume and projection needed for aggressive playing styles while also imparting a harmonic richness to each strike. These hi-hats are built to handle the demands of rock, metal and fusion drumming with aplomb.

Dark Finish Adds Warmth and Nuance

While most hi-hats aim for a bright, crisp tone, the dark hi-hats offer something more multi-dimensional. MEINL applies a special finishing process that results in a stunning dark, bronze patina. This finish enhances the warmth and complexity of the hi-hats, giving their tone an earthy, sloshy quality when played open. Closed, they retain a clear, articulate chick sound with added richness from the finish. The dark patina also makes these hi-hats a visual showpiece that will garner attention on any stage.

Versatile and Responsive

The MEINL dark hi-hats readily adapt to your playing needs, from tight, articulate patterns to open, sloshy grooves. Their medium weight and responsive feel allow for intricate footwork and stick articulation. Played closed, they deliver a clear, penetrating chick for accurate rhythmic work. Open, their tone blossoms into a lush, sloshy wash that lingers. This versatility and dynamic range make these hi-hats ideal for progressive styles that blend tight rhythms and open, textural playing.
