Meinl PA14QSH 14" Pure Alloy Benny Greb Quick Sand Hi-Hat Cymbal

Meinl PA14QSH 14" Pure Alloy Benny Greb Quick Sand Hi-Hat Cymbal - Overview:

Effortless touch and clean sound. This is Meinl Pure Alloy. A timeless voice formed with fully lathed surfaces allows them to be expressive in virtually any style. Their refined nature has two sides: polished definition met by a velvety wash that encompasses a full tonal spectrum. Shimmering, smooth sounds bounce right along with your stick to create a reactive touch that extends through all dynamic levels. These cymbals cut with agility. Blanketing their superb stick definition is a sustain that plays out with just the right amount of strength and balanced wash.

Features:

The Benny Greb signature 14” Quick Sand Hats are influenced by iconic jazz and funk cymbal sounds of the ‘70s and ‘80s. Benny utilizes a Pure Alloy B12 bronze top and B20 bronze bottom to blend clear definition under the stick with depth, warmth, and smoothness rounding out the sound. Both cymbals are sandblasted for pre-aged vintage character, and the bottom sound notch prevents airlock while boosting clarity and control. The sound notch is based on modified vintage cymbals used during the ‘70s and ‘80s.
