Questions frequently asked
Are the Meinl SB304 brushes suitable for jazz and acoustic sets?
These nylon-bristle brushes are suitable for jazz, blues, soul, pop, and acoustic settings. Their soft sound helps reduce volume while maintaining clear articulation on snare drum and toms.
How does the retractable mechanism of the SB304 work?
The retractable mechanism adjusts the effective length of the bristles. A longer extension produces a rounder, more diffuse sound, while a shorter length provides a more defined attack.

What are the dimensions of these Meinl brushes?
The length is 344 mm and the handle diameter is 16 mm. This compact size makes them easy to carry.
Can these brushes be used on cymbals?
The contact of nylon bristles on cymbals remains controlled and limits excessive brightness. A sound pad can be placed with a soft articulation. The design is made in the USA.
