- Very light and smooth sounding hihats right here!
- Say you like Thelonious Monk, as I do. Or Art Tatum. Or the Everly Brothers. Or Patsy Cline.
- Now say you want some Hihats that call to mind something beautiful and soulful and emotive - like those artists and that music.
- Just go to a big box store and get some….some…some Hihats that sound NOTHING like Vintage Zildjians.
- For whatever reason cymbal companies have not been able to capture the tone of these over half-century-old original Zildjians….although they keep trying to.
- And keep charging $750 for their attempts.
- Fortunately, no one needs to try to “re-create” a damn thing! This pair of 1960s Hand Hammered 14s” just IS!
- Just create!
- A thin 808 and 992 grams. Gorgeous. Paper thin Top over a Thin Bottom. Perfect.
- Dark and whispy. Light, splashy, and airy when opened like on a Count Basie record. Light RINGO slosh when opened. This is the tone!
- This pair has a light and lively complexity. Warm and tight when closed.
- These are the hats that launched thousands and thousands of recordings - in all different styles too.
- No cracks etc. Typical light wear on 65 year old hihats. Slightly larger hole on top. Doesn’t affect anything.
- This is THE SOUND! No more shopping for replicas and reproductions and re-designs. This is it.
- Some of the nicest sounding hihats we recorded today.
