Used Meinl HCS 16IN TRASH CHINA China Cymbal 16"

Estimated Year: 2020s

Made in: Germany

This Meinl HCS 16" Trash China is a killer effects cymbal that brings that aggressive, trashy attack your setup has been missing. Designed with multiple cut-out holes and a classic china shape, this cymbal delivers a fast, explosive response with a short decay—perfect for accents, breakdowns, and stacking. The HCS series is known for giving drummers an affordable way to expand their sound, and this one absolutely nails that gritty, cutting tone that works great for rock, metal, and anything that needs a little attitude.

The thin brass construction and hole pattern help create that signature “trashy” character—loud, quick, and full of bite without lingering too long in the mix. It’s also a great option for stacking with another cymbal to create unique textures and effects. :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}
