Review: While being from a budget series, these are actually some decent sounding hi-hats. They have deep lathing, with some medium-sized hammer marks. I thought they sounded best when used in the closed position. Since these are on the lighter side of the spectrum for this size, they do have a somewhat delicate feel, responsive, but lacking body. All this makes these a bit weak-sounding when played open. I thought the pitch was pleasing, yet I couldn't help but feel like these sounded a little metallic.
