LIGHT WHISPY 1960s Vintage Zildjian 14” EARLY New Beat Hihats 769 1207 g

• Damn!!! New, NEW Beats are $430! For the redesigned ones trying to imitate what these Vintage ones do effortlessly!
  
  
• And this particular pair is from the FIRST FEW YEARS OF PRODUCTION and has a VERY THIN Top cymbal - only 769 grams.   That’s damn thin on New Beats! One of the thinnest you will find. 
  
  
• And they’re very clean! Some of the cleanest vintage New Beats I’ve seen. Beautiful light golden hue. 
  
  
• This pair has the perfect mix of light subtle brightness with a paper-y whispy tone. 
  
  
• For cymbals this thin they're bright but not at all harsh. And they have a mellowed dryness to them. 

• CLASSIC pair of crisp, clean-sounding articulate, fairly dry slightly complex VINTAGE 1960s EARLY Zildjian New Beat 14” Hihats in amazing shape!
  
  
• The most recorded Hihats in history.
  
  
• Very THIN 769 Top Cymbal, and a heavier 1207 gram Bottom Cymbal (which is still thinner for New Beats.)These 14s” espouse the time-honored New Beat philosophy of a thin top cymbal coupled with a heavier bottom cymbal to supply plenty of CHICK tone!
  
  
• And that they do!! Crisp, tight, clean, and articulate sticking that is focused when closed, compliments of the last  5 -decades. Whispy light and airy accents when opened.  But overall slightly dry. 

• Great RINGO style slosh when opened fully.

• These beauties are drier but also more complex sounding than the $430 new ones - they have aged and focused up beautifully but also have a much thinner top cymbal. 

• Incredible for recording! Plenty of cutting ability for live situations.

• There’s a reason everyone wants Vintage New Beats!  They just do the thing. 
  
  
• No issues. Fantastic - especially for being a half-century old. 
  
  
• Real Deal EARLY New Beats from the very first years of production. 
  
  
• Don’t spend more for less….
