- Try as they may, the big companies have not been able to replicate the sound of these Vintage 15” Hi-hats. Don’t get me wrong, they have wonderful attempts and have made some nice cymbals along the journey, but they don’t do what these Early New Beats do naturally and effortlessly!
- The most recorded cymbals in history, and with good reason. They just do! They just SOUND right!
- These particular huge beauties harken from the EARLY YEARS of New Beats - the mid-60s. The first few New Beats to pop off the line!
- And they’re the rare FIFTEENS!
- 1044 and 1498 grams espouse the time-honored Thin Top / Heavy Bottom New Beat philosophy.
- Famous Responsive. Cutting. Fantastic CHICK tone.
- And being the rare, larger 15s these beauties are darker and lower-pitched than the everyday 14s. Perfect for laying down massive grooves.
- What’s great about this specific pair is that they have a beautiful light complexity that you only find on the Early 60s erosion New Beats. They just made them differently back then.
- So familiar to the ears! This is the tone that launched thousands and thousands of hit records.
- No need to spend more money on big box store “re-designed” these are the 55-year-old originals, they do it all.
- Great patina. No issues. Vintage Zildjian New Beats are always in style. A JOY to play.
