15 inch hi-hats with a dark and crispy sound
The Meinl Classics Custom Dual 15" hi-hats combine a dark and crispy character with warmth and strong projection. That helps these hi-hat cymbals cut clearly through the mix while still keeping the sound full and controlled.
The blend of warm tone and explosive response makes these Meinl hi-hats well suited to styles such as metal, rock, pop, fusion, studio and R&B. If you want a hi-hat that speaks tightly while still retaining plenty of body, this 15-inch version fits that role well.
Build of the Meinl Classics Custom Dual
On this hi-hat, a medium-thin top paired with a medium bottom creates a solid foot chick, the short and defined sound you get when closing the pedal. That gives you extra control in tight grooves and foot accents.
The B12 alloy of 88% copper and 12% tin forms the foundation of these Meinl cymbals. Extra hammering adds a darker, more complex sound, while the medium weight and flexible feel give you a direct response while playing.
Finish and production
The Dual design stands out straight away with its dark finish on the inner area and high-polished outer surface. That combination gives these Meinl hi-hats their own look and matches the sonic character of the series.
The Classics Custom Dual series is made in Germany using a high-tech computer-controlled production process and 100% renewable power source. At Magna Music, you can get personal advice from players themselves, useful when comparing different hi-hats.
