Sabian's Description: <<< - >>>
Review: "We were sent two sets of hi-hats. They performed well—and nearly identically. I played the 14" Rock hats on several different occasions, and they proved versatile enough to perform respectably (neither wimpy nor overpowering) in every situation. These cymbals pumped out a consistent and even “hiss,” and a clear “chick.” The combination of medium-heavy top and heavy bottom cymbals helped give definition to my accents and sticking patterns. And I didn’t really have to push to get that extra punch. These hats were a pleasure to play."
