  • These Hihats sound amazing. Don’t just guess. Have a listen! 
  • 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 Early New Beats do naturally.

  • The most recorded cymbals in history, and with good reason. They just do!

  • These particular huge, THIN beauties harken from the EARLY YEARS of New Beats - the mid-60s. 

  • Literally the first few years!  And at only 972 grams, that’s a THIN Top 15” which makes them dark, lush, and responsive.  

  • This pair is insanely beautiful. Perfect for a studio!

  • 972 and 1378 grams espouse the time-honored Thin Top Heavy Bottom New Beat philosophy.

  • Famous Responsive. Cutting. Fantastic CHICK tone. 

  • And being the rare, larger 15s these beauties are darker and lower-pitched than the everyday 14s. Perfect for laying down massive grooves.
  • Much darker and warmer than almost any pair of New Beats you will find out there. 

  • Guaranteed. 

  • No need to spend more money on big box store “re-designed”, these are the 55-year-old originals, they do it all.

  • Great patina. No issues. A JOY to play. A joy to listen to.
