The Meinl HCS Complete Cymbal Set-Up provides an affordable upgrade from basic starter cymbals. Made in Germany by Meinl, an industry leader crafting cymbals since 1951, the HCS line offers crisp, bright tones suited for drummers of all skill levels. This set includes 14" hi-hats, 16" crash, 20" ride cymbal, providing a balanced selection of cymbals to round out your drum kit's sound.

Quality Materials and Construction

The HCS cymbals are made from MS63 brass alloy, which provides a clean, focused tone without the annoying overtones of cheaper cymbals. Their substantial weight and grooved, hammered surfaces give HCS cymbals a professional look and feel, with crisp articulation and musicality perfect for any genre. While affordable, HCS cymbals are durable and long-lasting, even for aggressive players.

A Step Up in Sound

HCS cymbals offer an impressive upgrade from basic starter cymbals. Their harmonious, balanced tones will make playing the drums even more engaging and fun. HCS cymbals produce sounds more akin to what you hear on professional recordings, helping you develop an ear for quality cymbal tones.

Versatile Selection

This HCS set provides hi-hats for keeping time, a ride for a steady beat, and a crash for accenting different beats. With a seemingly endless variety of HCS cymbal types and sizes available, you can customize your set-up as your skills and needs evolve.

Premium Details

HCS cymbals feature the same iconic Meinl logo treatment found on our professional lines, with a laser-engraved logo and serial number on each cymbal. Their brilliant, shimmering finish makes HCS cymbals as visually appealing as they sound.
