Description
A Custom
- Recognized by their striking brilliant finish, A Custom HiHats feature unique tonal grooves and lower profiles. Together, these attributes produce a smoother, glassier and brighter sounding cymbal with more give when struck. It is these qualities that have made the sound of A Customs particularly sought after in the studio. Light, crisp, subtle and very colorful. Delicate stick sound. Clean HiHat "chick". Great HiHats for live performance or studio session work.9
Amir
- Short, crisp, clean response. Extra solid beat. Cutting power.1
A Avedis
- A Avedis HiHats are made thinner in weight, and finished with an "aged" patina to re-create the look and sound of vintage A Zildjian cymbals.10
I
- For drummers looking for classic, bright hihat sound, I Family HiHats are a great choice. A medium weight hihat bottom is paired with a medium-thin hihat top for a bright and well-defined "chick".7
K Zildjian
- Deep, solid chick sound. Full, low-pitched response. Warm, dark "open" sound.1
Zildjian Kerope
- Keropes hihats are handcrafted, dark, and complex, reminiscent of '50s and '60s cymbals but modern for today's music.2
Planet Z
- Great "chick" sound. Excellent stick definition. Cutting, bright tones.6
Re-Mix
- Synthetic, tight, "electronic" sound when played closed. Crisp, "processed" chick sound. Distorted, raw qualities when played half-open. Very fast attack and response speed. No extraneous overtones.11
S
- Perfectly balanced, the standard 14” S Family HiHats offer a versatile range of frequencies with a full-bodied response. Suitable for various styles of music.4
S Dark
- Available in the versatile 14” size, the S Dark HiHats are well-balanced and full-bodied, offer ample versatility across many genres of music, and will add darker shading to your overall sound.5
Scimitar
- Sharp, fast response. Well-defined "chip" sound with bright, focused tone.1
Scimitar Bronze
- A brilliant, controlled sound with a crisp metallic 'chip' sound. Great projection live with a good fast decay ideal for studio work.3
Z Custom
- Available in both 14” and 15” sizes, Z Custom HiHats produce bright and clean “chick” and “tick” sounds with unbridled projection. Z Custom HiHats are designed to cut through the mix on-stage and make a statement.8
