- Don’t go over $425 deep on the big box store new New Beats.
- The Vintage ones are THE SOUND. The new ones don’t capture this - try as the companies do…
- And this particular pair is from the FIRST FEW YEARS OF PRODUCTION and has a thinner Top cymbal at 885 grams. They have a sweet lightness to them but remain focused.
- Factory Stamped “NEW BEAT” on the bottom cymbal because that’s how the first New Beats were.
- This pair has a subtle complexity. They have a light wispiness to them, a lively shimmer when opened - like an old Motown recording.
- Beautiful 60s hammering and lathing on these Early New Beats. Especially on the underside.
- CLASSIC pair of crisp, clean-sounding articulate, slightly complex VINTAGE 1960s EARLY Zildjian New Beat 14” Hi Hats in fantastic shape!
- The most recorded hi hats in history.
- 885 Top Cymbal, and a heavier 1292 gram Bottom Cymbal. 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 that 5 -decade old patina. Wispy light and airy accents when opened.
- Great RINGO style slosh when opened fully.
- The Real Deal.
- These beauties are drier but also more complex sounding than the $425 new ones - they have aged and focused up beautifully but also have a 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. 60 year old patina focuses them beautifully.
- Real Deal EARLY New Beats from the 1960s with a thinner top.
- Don’t spend more for less….
