Product Info
* Prices may vary. Check retailer for current pricing and availability.
The Meinl HCS 18-inch crash is a solid entry-level cymbal – it's got a decent bright sound without being overly harsh. It's a great option for students or drummers just starting out who need a reliable, affordable crash to get them going, but don't expect the nuances of a pro-level cymbal.
