Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
The 16-inch Meinl HCS Trash China is an accent-focused China cymbal with a special bell profile and perforated bow. Those holes are used to create a dry, raspy, trashy voice with short sustain. It gives drum parts a brash edge for punctuation, including accents, blast beats, breakdowns, fill markers, and crescendos. It can also be stacked with other cymbals when you want more complex textures.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Adding short, trashy accents to blast beats, breakdowns, fills, and crescendos.
