Traditionally Crafted for a Classic Sound

When you're a company as radical as Meinl Cymbals, a push toward the traditional can be a refreshing twist. So it is with the Meinl Pure Alloy 14" hi-hats. These cymbals look to the past with fully lathed surfaces and traditional craftsmanship, for a look and response that's closer to yesterday's plates. This hi-hat pair boasts a defined chick to keep up with today's live music and a full, shimmery wash to blast your beats into the stratosphere. The full tonal spectrum is present in the Meinl Pure Alloy 14" hi-hats: not just a brilliant top, but real air-moving SPLs and a velvety midrange for a connection you can feel with every stroke.

Traditional, fully lathed surfaces

Fully lathed surfaces are a big departure from the raw, earthy cymbals Meinl is best known for today. This process gives the Meinl Pure Alloy hi-hats a higher wash-to-stick ratio — more like traditional cymbals — for a sweet, lingering sustain.

Crafted by drummers for drummers

Meinl's cymbal innovation stems from both a deep love for the craft and a desire to provide drummers with the sounds they're buzzing about. Whether you're into the traditional Pure Alloy series or the modern-dry Byzance line, we are confident that Meinl Cymbals has the sound you're after.
