  • No need to go over $425 deep on a pair of new NEW Beats that are trying to imitate what these Vintage ones do effortlessly!

  • And this particular early pair has a light, airy complexity when opened. But as New Beats, they still have no problem cutting.  

  • Dont guess as pictures online. Have a listen to this exact pair so you can buy with confidence. 

  • Fantastic sounding VINTAGE Zildjian Early New Beat 14” Hihats in fantastic shape!   

  • These beauties harken from the late 1960s or very early 1970s. They have the 60s hammering - even looks hand hammered. And that gives them that beautiful light complexity. 

  • The most recorded Hihats in history. And the new ones don’t do THIS. 

  • Thinner 895 gram Top Cymbal, and also thinner 1182  gram Bottom Cymbal.  These 14s” espouse the tone-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!! Light complexity, great crisp tone with articulate sticking that is focused - compliments of that 4-decade old patina. These beauties are more lively and breathy than the $425 new ones and they have a great played-in vintage-aged tone. These beauties have aged magnificently. 

  • 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. Real Deal New Beats from the first few years of production with a great natural patina. 

  • Don’t spend more for less….
