It positions itself as a simple, reliable, and immediate accessory to enrich the sonic palette, whether your set consists of brilliant, traditional, or hand-hammered raw cymbals.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr \/\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWho This Accessory Is For\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cbr \/\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Meinl Cymbal Bacon is aimed at all drummers, from beginners to professionals, who want to add an extra sonic color without investing in a dedicated cymbal. It is particularly relevant for styles seeking textured sustain and a \"lively\" high end: jazz, funk, fusion, pop, and all club or studio playing situations where nuance and timbral personality make a difference.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr \/\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFeatures and Innovations\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cbr \/\u003e\u003cp\u003eIts concept is based on a thin washer combined with a ball chain: the chain gently brushes the cymbal surface to create an organic sizzle, comparable to the rivet effect but without any drilling. The accessory can be mounted on any cymbal stand and adapts to your preferred feel: placed \u003cstrong\u003eabove\u003c\/strong\u003e the felts for more direct contact, \u003cstrong\u003ebelow\u003c\/strong\u003e for a subtler effect, or even \u003cstrong\u003ewithout felts\u003c\/strong\u003e depending on your setup. Its great strength is its quick usability: you can move it from one cymbal to another mid-song to switch from a defined ride to a more \"airy\" crash in seconds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr \/\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSound Characteristics\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cbr \/\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Cymbal Bacon does not replace your cymbal's character\u0026#59; it \u003cstrong\u003ecomplements\u003c\/strong\u003e it. The stainless steel chain adds a layer of texture in the highs, with a \"sizzle\" that follows the cymbal's natural vibration. On a ride, the effect provides a more singing sustain and a halo sensation, very useful for open patterns and brushes. On a crash, it enhances the \"shimmery\" dimension and gives a grainier note decay, ideal for broad accents and atmospheres.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr \/\u003e\u003cp\u003eUnlike some solutions that muffle the cymbal, this design is intended to preserve the \u003cstrong\u003esustain\u003c\/strong\u003e: the contact is mobile (the chain bounces), which avoids constant damping. The result remains musical, adaptable, and works equally well on brilliant cymbals as on raw or hammered finishes, where the metal's texture further highlights the effect.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cstyle\u003e@media(max-width:632px){table[data-wb-spec]{display:grid;grid-template-columns:minmax(0,1fr) minmax(0,1fr)}table[data-wb-spec] colgroup{display:none}table[data-wb-spec] tbody,table[data-wb-spec] tr{display:contents}table[data-wb-spec] td{display:block;overflow-wrap:anywhere;grid-row:var(--wb-l);background-color:var(--wb-lb)}table[data-wb-spec] td[data-r]{grid-row:var(--wb-r);background-color:var(--wb-rb)}table[data-wb-spec] td[colspan=\"2\"]{grid-column:1\/-1}table[data-wb-spec] td:empty{display:none}}\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003ctable data-wb-spec style=\"width:100%;table-layout:fixed\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:1;--wb-r:2;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eGrey\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r colspan=\"2\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ctable data-wb-spec style=\"width:100%;table-layout:fixed\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:transparent;--wb-l:1;--wb-r:4;--wb-lb:transparent;--wb-rb:var(--wb-neutral-50)\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEffect\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eadds a \u0026quot;sizzle\u0026quot; sound to a cymbal\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eType\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eball chain\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:2;--wb-r:5;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eall cymbal stands\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003e10.5\u0026quot;\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:transparent;--wb-l:3;--wb-r:6;--wb-lb:transparent;--wb-rb:var(--wb-neutral-50)\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlacement\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eabove or below the cymbal felts (or use without felts)\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003estainless steel\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Meinl","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54359332290835,"sku":"225805","price":10.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0984\/0872\/6803\/files\/197fc0c6a2afdb64ea65d6428671f426650e1418_MEINL_BACON.jpg?v=1793375694","url":"https:\/\/woodbrass.shop\/products\/meinl-cymbal-bacon-225805","provider":"Woodbrass.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
