  • Absolutely fantastic sounding flagship Sabian HHX Manhattan Hi Hats in the damn-near-impossible to find 13” size! 

  • Have a listen to this exact pair! They’re thin and much more responsive, articulate and faster than any of the 14” hi hats.  

  • The Top is only 704 grams which makes this particular pair exceptionally airy, light and whispy sounding. Combine that with the HHX craftsmanship and you have gorgeous hats. 

  • And I’m not even sure Sabian makes these Manhattans today - they’re not a regular catalog item and not on the site. Whatever you can find is nearly $650.  And I have seen them in 13s” in a long time. 

  • But I can’t say they aren’t worth it!  These are some of the nicest THIN modern hi hats I’ve heard.  

  • Sabian described these cymbals as:
    “With increased sensitivity and response, this pairing combines hot, low undertones and 'Tone Projection' highs for simmering articulation."

  • And that is accurate! 

  • And then of course they smashed our dreams upon the rocks below by making them damn near impossible to find. 

  • At 704 and 904 grams these Hard to Find 13” Manhattan Jazz Hats play like ultra warm, PAPER THIN smooth, semi-complex hi hats. 

  • Terrific subtle light complexity to them when opened.  Close them for a lower pitched (for 13s”,) very responsive semi-dry stick attack.  Overall subtle dark tone. 

  • These are some of lightest sounding Sabian hi hats you will find. Or actually not find. 

  • Perfect for very low to medium volumes. Great for recording.

  • Light golden patina mellows them out. No issues. Overall very clean. 

  • Incredible sounding hi hats. Just listen! And buy with confidence!
