Description

Immerse yourself in a symphony of unmatched musical complexity with the Zildjian 14'' K Hi Hats. A true testament to Zildjian's storied craftsmanship, these cymbals offer a blend of vintage warmth and modern darkness, resonating with exceptional tonal versatility. The unique combination of a thin top and an extra-heavy bottom provides a broad spectrum of sounds, ranging from subtle, breathy chick sounds to loud, cutting crashes.

The top cymbal is highly responsive, reacting instantly to variations in technique and touch, while the bottom cymbal gives foot chicks and splashes a full, resonant tone with rich overtones. Featuring unlathed bells, these Hi-Hats produce penetrating overtones, adding a distinctive voice to your drum kit with a hint of raw trashiness. Handcrafted in the USA from Zildjian's proprietary B20 bronze alloy, these cymbals provide unparalleled musicality, allowing you to explore a plethora of tonal colors.

Whether you're a hard-hitting rocker or a jazz virtuoso, the Zildjian 14'' K Hi Hats are perfectly suited for drummers looking to expand their sonic palette.

Key Features:

  • Thin top cymbal for high sensitivity and a wide range of tones

  • Unlathed bells producing penetrating overtones with a hint of raw trashiness
  • Handcrafted in the USA from Zildjian's proprietary B20 bronze alloy

My cymbal voice

This K series hi hat 14" is wonderful! It was my first purchase, I was searching to give to my drumset a Real voice. That's all! The sound of this cymbal is totally insane. So clear, dark and with a lot of volume and dynamics! Must Have!

Excellent dark Hi Hats

Deep, warm, with solid "chick" sound. Low pitched; fast response.
