Try as they may, the big companies have not been able to replicate the sound of these Vintage 15” Hi-Hats.
Don’t get me wrong, they have wonderful attempts and have made some nice cymbals along the journey, but they don’t do what these Vintage New Beats do naturally.
The most recorded cymbals in history, and with good reason. They just do!
And these are the harder to find massive FIFTEENS! And they’re earlier 1970s - they even look to have a one foot in 1960s.
No need to go $470 on the modern ones. That’s ridiculous. And you’ll just be guessing at the tone.
These you can actually hear!
This particular pair of 15s harken from the golden era of classic rock - New Beats had only been around a decade or so and drummers were using them everywhere.
Crisp and articulate 1116 and 1454 grams espouse the time-honored Thinner Top Heavy Bottom New Beat philosophy - with this pair being extremely crisp and clean sounding.
Famous Responsive. Cutting. Fantastic CHICK tone. Again this particular pair cuts extremely well with a very strong chick - even from this era. Stronger than most. But they still remain responsive at lower volumes.
And being the rare, larger 15s these beauties are darker and lower-pitched than the everyday 14s. Perfect for laying down massive grooves.
No need to spend more money on big box store “re-designed” Hi Hats, these are the 45-year-old originals, they do it all.
Great patina. No issues. A JOY to play.
Vintage Zildjian 15s” is always in style, and this pair is one of the whispy-est pairs.
