- Here’s a very special pair of New Beats. Check out the weights.
- Very Thin and very, very responsive 722 gram Top Cymbal with a fairly thin 1056 gram Bottom Cymbal. Thats one of the THINNEST Top cymbals you’ll find on this era! From the late 1960s or early 1970s. They look like they have a bit of that famous 60s hand hammering.
- Why go $480 for the modern ones - just trying to imitate these. They won’t be anything close to this famous tone!
- Here we have a pair of LIGHT, clean-sounding articulate, slightly dry with a pinch of complex SHIMMER, VINTAGE Zildjian New Beat 14” Hihats in fantastic shape! Aged beautifully over the last half a century.
- VERY THIN TOP with a Medium Bottom for the great response and tremendous CHICK.
- The most recorded Hihats in history.
- These 14s” espouse the tone-honored New Beat philosophy of a thin top cymbal coupled with a heavier bottom cymbal to supply plenty of CHICK tone!
- And that they do!! Crisp, tight, clean, and articulate sticking that is focused - compliments of that 5-decade old patina. These beauties are drier and more tight and clean sounding than the $480 new ones - these beauties have aged and focused up beautifully.
- This particular pair has a light liveliness that floats over the top - just a hint of brilliance to them. I guess they were anointed!
- Incredible for recording! Plenty of cutting ability for live situations.
-
That 722 gram top makes them incredibly responsive.
- There’s a reason everyone wants Vintage New Beats! They just do the thing!
- Slight keyhole on top cymbal - doesn’t affect longevity, tone or playability. Real Deal New Beats - great for anything.
- Don’t spend more for less….
