The Meinl Cymbals Classics Custom series stands for bright, cutting cymbals and offers everything a drummer could wish for, from an 8-inch splash to a 22-inch ride and everything in between. All cymbals are made in Germany from B12 bronze.
The Classics Custom Brilliant have a brilliant finish and deliver an especially clear, shimmering sound that cuts through in any musical style.
The Classics Custom Dark cymbals undergo more intensive hammering and receive a dark finish. Beyond their striking look, this results in a slightly darker, more washed-out but also warmer sound.
The Classics Custom Dual cymbals combine the sonic characteristics of the two previous models. The inner section takes the properties of the Classics Custom Dark, while the outer area is brilliant. This produces a warm fundamental tone with a quick, explosive attack.
The Classics Custom Extreme Metal wear their primary application in the name. These cymbals are a bit louder, thicker and more durable, and especially cutting even against walls of distorted guitars.
The company Meinl was founded in 1951 by Roland Meinl as a one-man operation producing cymbals in a cellar workshop. Now in its third generation and family-run, Roland Meinl Musikinstrumente has become one of the biggest names in the production of cymbals, percussion instruments and sound therapy instruments, with locations in Gutenstetten and Nashville, TN.
Meinl Cymbals are manufactured at two locations. One production site is at the company headquarters in Gutenstetten in Franconia. This site has been specialised in high-precision automated production and hammering and has been continuously modernised since the new build in 2003. The series produced exclusively in Germany include, among others, HCS, Classics Custom, Classics Custom Dark, Classics Custom Dual as well as Pure Alloy and Pure Alloy Custom.
With the introduction of the traditionally hand-hammered cymbals of the Byzance Series in 2000, Meinl entered a centuries-old tradition of cymbal manufacturing in the home of cymbal craftsmanship – Turkey. Since the construction of the Turkish production facility in Samsun in 2019, production has taken place in a highly modern manufactory. After manufacture there, the cymbals are finished in the German factory and each one is strictly inspected for look and sound.
The cymbal range comprises seven main series that, based on six different alloys, cover a particularly broad sonic spectrum. These include: Byzance, Pure Alloy, Classic Custom, HCS, Symphonic/Marching, Generarion X and Artist Concept Models.
The range is complemented by Drum Gear – accessories for the drum kit – from drum rugs through practice pads and stick bags to cymbal cleaners and drum keys. Meinl Cymbals' endorsers include some of the most successful and well-known drummers of our time, among them: Benny Greb, Robert "Sput" Searight, Matt Garstka, Anika Nilles, Mike Johnston, Jost Nickel, Chris Coleman, Luke Holland, Brann Dailor and Wolfgang Haffner.
To experience the complete Meinl Cymbals range with all your senses, we warmly recommend a visit to our Walldorf branch. On site we host the first Meinl Flagship Store in Europe, where you'll find the entire Meinl Cymbals portfolio and even some special models that you can of course play and try out.
