Meinl Percussion Cowbell for Drum Set, Mike Johnston Groove Bell Signature

Meinl Percussion Cowbell for Drum Set, Mike Johnston Groove Bell Signature

• MIKE JOHNSTON SIGNATURE: the Meinl Groove Bell was designed with Meinl Cymbals artist and online educator, Mike Johnston; Mike's idea was to make a modern, drum set aligned bell that doesn't dominate your sound and is easy to control
• WHY IT MATTERS: your flow will improve since the bell adds to your grooves instead of overpowering; it cuts without piercing when you need it to and sits back with lower volume
• ONE BIG THING: comes with two magnetic mutes that let you instantly dampen sustain and drop pitch without making drastic changes to the bell (based on Benny Greb's Magnetic Sustain Control); magnets are strong, so they stay in place while playing
• DRIVING THE SOUND: made with a special steel alloy and hexagon shaped medium-sized mouth; Mike and Meinl R&D arrived at its shape, proportions, and alloy after years of testing
• ZOOM IN: a brushed vintage steel finish gives the bell an old school, worn-in appearance with a good-looking patina; the bell features Mike’s signature on the side
• BY THE NUMBERS: the Groove Bell measures 7 3/4" L (not including mount) x 5 1/4" W x 2" H; two magnetic mutes (1x small, 1x large)
• THE BOTTOM LINE: this is the most easily controllable cowbell on the market for drum set players; plus, it will look great in your kit
• THE BIG PICTURE: Meinl is a family-owned musical instrument manufacturer and brand established 1951 in Germany; our expert German designers have deep relationships with our builders to ensure you're delivered the absolute finest quality
