Sabian's Description: <<< - >>>
Review: "The two new Light hi-hats are an alternative to the already available standard Artisan hats. They have a classic look with a regular finish, although you can buy them polished to Brilliant if you prefer. The new Elites have a more distinctive look, a natural finish with top-and-bottom lathing smudged with black traces of tin oxide. They are also distinguished by their low profile including gently rising bells.
With the 14" Elite hats the tiniest tap elicits a full clear tone. When you pedal ‘2’ and ‘4’ while riding the 22" everything is supple, dark and calm. While they’ll never be the loudest, their quality ensures their versatility."

Review: "The 14” version is much the same as far as feel and how they play is concerned, just higher in pitch, but not so much that they didn’t blend in."
