Unique stack combination from the AC series by Benny Greb
The Meinl Benny Greb AC Crasher Hats 6"/6" are an innovative stack combo designed by Benny Greb in collaboration with Meinl's R&D team. The sound is dry, explosive and short. With its clarity and high frequency range it reminds of electronic shaker samples and enriches your own playing and offers unique possibilities.
Benny Greb:"Is it a shaker? A programmed & pitched hi-hat sample? Is it a crasher percussion effect? No, it's the Crasher Hats. I wanted something that was super short, dry, clear and high in frequency but still very dynamic that could fulfill a whispering shaker-like role in the music. Tough to get! So we had to create something completely unique. Four separate cymbals sandwiched together. They have different shoulders so they collapse against each other at every hit. The result is incredible. A very unique sound that blends beautifully with ghost notes and other subdivisions, but can also make a very percussive statement. Always sounds perfect without any unwanted noise or sustaining ring. It has become part or my sound. Check it out. It's such a useful instrument. I absolutely love it."
