Meinl 18" Classics Custom Dark China Reviews
I hope this is just my case
In fact, the cymbal sounds exactly as I expected! I really like it! But unfortunately, it burst about two hours after purchase. It's really a big disappointment. I've been playing for fifteen years and I know how to hit cymbals correctly, so it's not about my "aggressive" playing. I'm not sure if I'll buy this next time. You'll have to take something more expensive. But I really liked the sound!
Perfect for Rock & Metal
Bought for jamming rock and metal music and it is perfect! Super loud, super heavy and, for what it is, super affordable. Would recommend to anybody
Great Sound, Fantastic Looks. Exceptional Value
I was looking a new set of cymbals with a less bright tone that my usual set and came across the Meinl Classic Custom Dark range. I have to say that they are the most visual dramatic set of cymbals that I've come across and I was very impressed by samples of the sounds so I bought a basic starter set. When I got them delivered they were even better than I was expecting. So I decided to expand the set and added a small 10" splash and this 18" China. Again I am very pleased with the look and typical 'trashy' China sound. I am a gigging drummer playing rock music and the cymbals needed to cut though but not overpower things. Oddly enough my band have been complaining that my regular top line cymbal were TOO bright. So while I was myself intereste d in trying something different I didnt want to spend £1000's on another premium range. I wanted value for money and these are a great range at a great price. Highly recommended.
