Meinl | CLassics Custom DUal series

Hybrid Cymbals With Striking Style And Tone

Meinl combines elements of their Classics Custom Dark and Custom Brilliant to create something entirely its own: the Classics Custom Dual Series.

What may look like dark-finished cymbals with lathed and polished edges are true hybrids, forged from B12 bronze alloy and carefully smithed for a low fundamental tone, warm and washy, comfortably positioned in any mix. 

Centers respond with complex overtones and a quick punch, much like you’d expect from dark-finish cymbals, but play it on the flexible, brilliant-finish edge and it erupts in a fast, explosive shout. These dual characters blend into a warm, dynamic sound equally fit for the stage or the studio.

Choose from 20” and 22” rides; 16”, 18”, 19” and 20” crashes; 16” and 18” trash crashes; 16” and 18” chinas; 14” and 15” hi-hats; 10” and 12” splashes; or grab a whole set, available in three- or four-piece boxes.

The ‘68 Customs have become an extremely popular amp series for guitarists who love classic Fender sounds along with toneful modifications that resonate with today’s players.

The ’68 Customs have become an extremely popular amp series for guitarists who love classic Fender sounds along with toneful modifications that resonate with today’s players. 

At just 5 watts, the original Vibro Champ was famous for classic Fender tremolo, tube sparkle and killer grind at a reasonable level.

These additions make this little wonder perfect for rehearsal, home recording and even small gigs.

Meinl 10" Classics Custom Dual Splash Cymbal

£73.00
There is more to the NEW Classics Custom Dual series than you may think at first glance, and while it may appear that we took our Classic Custom Dark cymbals and buffed the edges to a brilliant finish, this is a different cymbal.  

Starting with B12 bronze alloy, Classics Custom Dual cymbals have a warmer fundamental tone that allows them to sit further down in the mix and blend with your kit. The lathed and polished edges have a flexible feel and create a fast response when crashed. Additionally, the dark center powers these cymbals to produce a quick punch with a complex character. The resulting sound is a harmonious blend of warmth and explosive response that will feel at home both in the studio and on stage. The full assortment of hihats, crashes, rides, plus a splash and china is rounded out with a trash splash, trash crashes, and a trash china to offer drummers all of the necessary voicings for a wide range of diverse musical styles.

With an appearance as striking as their complex sound, Classics Custom Dual cymbals will add another layer of sophistication to your setup.

CME Sessions | Baroness

We’re used to seeing live touring acts stop into CME—but, it’s not often that we get our own private concert! No matter what descriptors one might use to describe Baroness’s music, the way they use classic guitar models equipped with single-coil pickups to paint lush sonic landscapes is a reminder to musical artists of any genre that, often, the best surface upon which to paint—whether recording or in live performances—is a colorless canvas. Check out what we mean, here, in the Baroness CME Session!

Gibson USA | CME Exclusive Les Paul Standards

Both CME Exclusive Les Paul Standard ’50s and Les Paul Standard ’60s come equipped with a pair of Gibson T-Type humbuckers, to provide a well-rounded top-end chime! Developed in collaboration with Chicago Music Exchange for an exclusive 2019-2021 run of CME Exclusive SG Standards, “T-Type” pickups are a replica of Gibson’s T-Top humbucker pickups used from 1968-1980—the same model pickup Jimmy Page installed in the bridge his own 1959 Gibson Les Paul Sunburst, affectionately dubbed his “No. 1,” which helped to forever define the sound of ‘70s hard rock.
