Zodiac Cymbals 14" Hi Hats Aquarius

Zodiac Cymbals 14" AQUARIUS Series Hi-Hats! Meticulously crafted for professional drummers seeking strong, bursting tone. Hand-hammered from bronze B20 (80% Copper+20% Tin), these hi-hats deliver a dark, complex and trashy with a full- bodied, earthy attack that transitions to an assertive sustain.  The "dual" finish, featuring a raw, hand-hammered inner surface and a brilliant, lathed outer edge, creates this unique sound and contrast, making them versatile for genres like Jazz, Funk, Rock, Latin and studio work. 

Key Features:

Material: Made from high-quality B20 bronze (80% copper, 20% tin), delivering earthy, trashy and deep sound.         

Sound Profile: The hi-hats offer a mid-dark timbre. Medium to short sustain, low volume and low to mid pitch.

Applications: Perfect for live performances, studio recordings, and daily practice designed for intermediate to professional musicians.

Material: High-quality B20 bronze (80% copper, 20% tin) provides a wide tonal range, which is then shaped by the dual finish and hammering techniques.

Craftsmanship: Hand-hammered, lathed and highly polished on the surface, but primitively processed on the head part/ repeatedly hammered for tuning.

Versatility:  Can handle both soft, subtle playing and loud, expressive hit.

Finish:  The combination of a raw, unlathed inner section and a brilliant, lathed outer edge is the source of the unique sound and appearance.

The 14" AQUARIUS Hi-Hats deliver a complex, dark and warm a sound with a low-to-mid pitch and clean, sharp "chick". Their sound is a result of a combination of B20 bronze, hand-hammering, unique lathing, and raw/brilliant/traditional finishes, which provides excellent articulation for precise playing while also offering a musical wash.
