Review: "The 14" and 15" Z Custom Mastersound hats are thick and heavy, and they produce clean, brittle tones. Stick definition is bright and pronounced on both sizes. The bottom cymbals feature a “wavy edged” design to help give the hats a very defined “chick” sound. The larger size of the 15" hats produced a depth and fullness of sound that seemed to fatten up the overall groove. On the other hand, the 14" hats had more “bite,” and produced a brighter, sharper tone. But both sizes have plenty of cut and are well suited for loud musical situations. They work especially well for “partially opened” washy rock grooves."
