The Meinl HCS Trash Crash 18" gives beginners a low-cost introduction to the extensive Meinl range of cymbals. Although they are made of brass, they offer a professional look with a warm sound character. With the HCS cymbals, Meinl already supplies some special cymbal models with cut outs in the entry level range, in addition to the standard models, which other manufacturers only offer in significantly higher price and quality classes. This allows beginners to create their own individual cymbal setup.
