Meinl 08" Classics Custom Bell

I bought this bell because I was on a budget and really wantes a bell for my drum kit.

Honestly wasn't very satisfied with the product.

The cymbal has an insane decay and i just wanted to use it to make some funky breaks.

Once you touch this bell it will be ringing in your ears for the next 8 bars off the song.

If you are looking for something short and clear I dont recommend.

I recently got this bell and I enjoy it every time i play, It's not particularity loud, but it has great clarity with a long full sustain. The finish is nice and shiny and you can feel that it's quite a tick cymbal just by holding it. It definitely feels, looks and sounds more expensive than what it is. The quality is top notch, but if you are looking for a cutting bell sound then you might be better off with a ride cymbal with a big bell.

Get one. You won’t regret it! 😍

Overall good, sonic characteristics; very present sound. i mostly use it for "prepared drums" kind of sound and really like this bell for that. i would've loved it, if i found it in 6" though.

This cymbal is very well made, looks and feels like a good quality cymbal. The sound could do with a little more sustain but all round a good buy in my opinion
