Zildjian's Description: <<< - >>>
Review: "The A Custom line originally offered only 14" hi-hats, but now a 13" pair is available. The bottom cymbal is a medium weight, and the top cymbal is medium thin. Being that they are somewhat light in weight and have a Brilliant finish, the overall volume of these hi-hats is a little softer than "normal" 13s. However, they're extremely responsive, and sound beautiful played partially open. You can smack the hell out of 'em without their becoming obnoxious. Quick chokes and closed playing also sounded great, although the "chick" sound was a little on the soft side. I found I had to widen the distance between the cymbals and use a little more force with my leg to get the same amount of sound as my regular 13" produces. Overall, though, on a gig where one might have to keep the volume down a bit, these would be perfect."
