Meinl MB8 20 China cymbal
Product no: 9000-0004-3482 Bax Music Warranty: This product comes with a 3-year warranty.

General

Meinl's 20-inch Mb8 china cymbal is a great instrument with a remarkably friendly price tag that should appeal to many advanced drummers and percussionists. With its 20-inch diameter, this cymbal has a surprisingly quick, devastating attack with a lengthy sustain. The brash sound is great for all kinds of music, both live and in the studio.

Mb8 for maximum tone

This machine-made cymbal is crafted from B8 bronze, which ensures it's durable enough for the modern-day drummer to really lay into it, without fear of breaking the cymbal. Furthermore, the Mb8 china was polished to give it a brilliant finish.
