Best Avedis Zildjian Company Ride in 2026

Crisp, sweet, sophisticated cymbals with a modern sound

Great cymbal set for a variety of drumming styles

Made using radical rotary hammering techniques

Included in the Classics Custom Dark bonus set — 14" dark hihats (pair), 16" dark crash, 20" dark ride plus a FREE 18" dark crash

Dark finish with extra hammering — a highly specialized finishing process leaves this cymbal with shadowy tones and plenty of volume — extra deep hammering adds complexity to its character by shaping warmth and dryness into its intense attack

Explosive cymbals for power players — Classics Custom Dark cymbals open up to deliver an energetic drive at loud dynamics, making them a sure bet for high octane styles like rock and metal

MAJOR UPGRADE FROM "STOCK" STARTER CYMBALS: these are not those distractingly cheap, flimsy prop cymbals that come with most drum sets; Meinl HCS cymbals have impressive sound and sturdy feel geared toward beginner/intermediate players

WHY IT MATTERS: playing HCS cymbals will sound more like what you hear in actual songs, making the drums even more fun to play; plus, they aren't going to fall apart, dent, or bend after a few uses like stock cymbals

WHAT'S IN THE BOX: includes one 8" bell; the HCS bell is a standout effects cymbal with a crystal-clear "ping" note that rings out for a long time; try using it inverted over your ride for heavy bell riding sounds heard in rock and metal music

From heavy metal to light ambience (medium pitch) — HCS 8" bronze bells are available in high, medium, and low pitches to create melodies or to use as a stand-alone bell — invert on top of your ride for heavy bell riding or use for airy cymbal effects

B8 bronze alloy — HCS bronze cymbals are designed for beginners who are just starting or players looking to expand — their B8 bronze alloy is fully lathed for a refined, bright and clear response and a balanced sustain

Made in Germany — when you open the box, the first thing you will notice is these cymbals bear the exact same markings as professional Meinl cymbals — they feature the large Meinl stamp and a smaller laser engraved logo with the text “Made In Germany”

Hand hammered in Turkey from cast B20 Bronze — the Byzance Traditional Medium Ride connects with an earthy shine that lets your stick definition come through, along with a complex mosaic of undertones that can only be the result of extensive hand hammering

Fully lathed surfaces — Byzance Traditional cymbals are fully lathed to give them a classic sound and look — some of the deeper hand hammer craters are visible, but the surface has been lathed down to smooth perfection for an effortless touch

Clear and pronounced bell — a mark of any good ride cymbal is having a bell that is easily activated and punches through with clarity — the bell on this ride sits on top of the mix of the cymbal, giving you a pronounced high frequency sound

8" Classics Custom bell — this Classics Custom bell creates a long-sustaining tone with a sharp initial attack, making it great for genres ranging from metal to hip-hop — invert on top of your ride for heavy bell riding effects

Brilliant finish and fully lathed — to deliver as much shimmering cut as possible, these cymbals feature a highly reflective brilliant finish with fully lathed surfaces on both sides — the combination of lathing and buffing delivers a classic, clean sound

Explosive cymbals for power players — Classics Custom cymbals open up to deliver an energetic drive at loud dynamics, making them a sure bet for high octane styles like rock and metal

Traditional ride sounds with plenty of ping — the HCS ride creates a defined ping with a cutting bell for a bright overall sound that is useful for any style from rock to jazz

Designed for beginners and students — Meinl HCS cymbals are designed for beginner and student musicians using a durable brass alloy that maintains its tone while holding up to the brunt of drum sticks

Made in Germany with green energy — These cymbals feature the Meinl stamp and a small laser engraved logo with the text: Made in Germany — Our Meinl Cymbals Factory in Gutenstetten runs on green energy

Hand hammered in Turkey from cast B20 Bronze — the Sand Crash Ride is aged by sand blasting the surfaces — the B20 responds beautifully after the aging procedure, resulting in a vintage sound and look

Benny Greb signature — the Sand cymbals were developed in cooperation with Benny Greb, who was looking for cymbals that could occupy any frequency while delivering a old-school sound

Texture galore — the hammering, sand blasting and lathing combination results in a smooth feel with definition and an earthy character — three rivets add an additional element of smooth sizzle
