Meinl has been a go-to name amongst drummers and percussionists since 1951, and their China cymbals are extremely popular with players from around the world. Explosive, dark and truly oriental, a Meinl China cymbal would make an incredible addition to your setup, and you'll find plenty of options to choose from in this section. As any experienced player will tell you, versatility is what makes a great drummer. By opening yourself up to other musical genres, as well as incorporating different kinds of cymbals into your routine, you can broaden the possibilities of your performance. While certain cymbals are used for keeping a steady rhythm, others work better for accents and climatic points in a song. This is where China cymbals come in handy, and Meinl China cymbals are offered in a wide range of styles and sizes. For example, if you're looking for a China cymbal that's perfect for adding unique riding effects to your technique, check out the Byzance Brilliant China cymbal. By taking the traditional Byzance and darkening its sound, this cymbal's combination of warm and dark tonalities make it ideal for any style of music. Another popular item is the Mb20 Rock China cymbal. Handmade in Turkey and using the traditional B20 bronze alloy, the Mb20 series was created specifically for high volume purposes, making this cymbal excellent for metal and punk. Now, if penetrating accents are what you're after, then go with the Classics Custom Trash China. Featuring different sized cut-outs for an enhanced aggressive sound, this cymbal delivers a huge attack with little to no sustain.
