Here’s a sound that’s ever-present in our minds:

THINNER Vintage 1960s Zildjians Hihats.
These 14s” are a perfect compromise between Paper Thin Hihats and New Beats.

That’s the vibe. Thinner and pre-mass manufacturing.

PERFECT RINGO TONE!! Thin and responsive but not ultra thin. 

For whatever reason cymbal companies have not been able to capture the tone of these well over half-century-old original Zildjians….although they keep trying to and they keep charging $550-700 for their attempts.

Fortunately, no one needs to try to “re-create” a damn thing! This pair of 1960s Thin 14s” just IS! Just create!

870 and 976 grams. Thin. Semi-Complex and with that mellowed out dryness that only comes from time. 

Light, and whispy with a lovely complexity! Tight, focused, and MOTOWN crisp when closed, perfect RINGO SLOSH when opened. Sturdy Jazz-style CHUP when played with your foot.

These are the hats that launched 1000000 recordings in every genre! 

No issues at all. Deep dark golden hue.  

THE SOUND!  For damn near everything!!
