Meinl Percussion Cowbell for Drum Set, Mike Johnston Groove Bell Signature | Mountable Cow Bell Musical Instrument, Vintage Tone and Finish, Includes Magnetic Mutes

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
