A Zildjian

• A medium-thin top cymbal matched to a medium bottom cymbal for a lively, musical sound. Not as intense as New Beat Hi Hats. Commonly used with Ride and Crash cymbals to make up a basic cymbal set-up. For smaller group work. Diameters: 13", 14", 15", 16". The 14" is the most popular. (1)
  

K Zildjian

• Based on requests from players for a lighter weight version of our heralded K HiHats, these K Light HiHats have a medium thin top paired with a medium bottom to give them a dark and slightly delicate feel with a light blend of overtones. Good for most applications including rock, pop, country, and jazz. (2)
