Meinl logo ?

[DIRT]

I'm just wondering what exactly the logo on Meinl cymbals is and what it stands for. I'm almost possitive I've read somewhere awhile back that it's two R's, and stands for Roland / Rhienhold or how ever the other guys' name is spelled. And that alot of people confuse it with two A's.( I know I did about a year ago and asked a store if they had any Meinl AA's). Anyway I've seen people say that it's AA and a M, but havent seen anyone on here say RR.

[Phos]

I always thought it was a P, an A, and an M, for PA Meinl (though, I don't know the significance of PA, I just remember seeing it on a Meinl picture on the internet somewhere):

[DIRT]

Thats another one Phos Ive never seen anyone say PA. So now we have PA, RR, AA, M, Its certainly the most confusing logo I've ever seen.

[The Hermit]

The Meinl logo is simply the "M" of "Meinl". There`s nothing more behind it.

Cool thanks Hermit. Very strange looking M though huh?

It`s just the font. I can`t really imagine a different Meinl logo...

I think its an "M" but the two circles are supposed to look like drumstick tips.

i have always thought it's an M whit an R inside it for Roland Meinl.

But seriously, how in hell is that an "M" ? And how do you guys pronounce Meinl?
I say Men-eel, I know its wrong but I have no idea. 00**

I don`t see why Meinl is such a confusing name? If you count the number of threads about how you should announce "Paiste", well...yeah, you get the picture.

[Thrush]

Ain't got a clue about the logo - maybe it is an M and inside the M are two R's (one reversed and one normal)?????
