  • So rare and esoteric! You never see these outside of old school Harvey Mason. 

  • Informally known as The Harvey Mason Signature Hihats…he sported the EQ Hats! 

  • Damn near impossible to find Sabian EQ 14” Hihats in fantastic condition! Your eyes do not deceive you! The Top Cymbal on these Hand Hammered EQ Hats is FLAT!

  • Yes! Straight up flat and from the factory that way! 

  • And as you would imagine - just as with a Flat Ride, the overtones are very mellow and CONTROLLED. While Zildjian sat on a pile of gold bars, Sabian actually experimented - they were never afraid to try new things. And this is a prime example of their dedication to that philosophy, one they maintain today.

  • From what I recall, Harvey Mason was in a Sabian ad with these cymbals back in the day for the brief window they existed in the catalog.

  • The Top Cymbal is an AA EQ Top and the Bottom is a HH EQ Bottom.  They are 1320 over 1374 grams. Tight and clean with a hint of Hand Hammered shimmer and complexity - but very subtle.   

  • These EQ Hats play like no other hihats. Quick and tight when closed,  very chime-like tone when opened - hell you can even use them as a small ride when full opened. They have the factory cut-out notches for an anti-lock Quick Beat fast playing action.

  • Nothing like these anywhere and Sabian hasn’t made these in years! Perfect for a studio or as alternate hihats. Secret weapon because they’re not your standard boring fare.
