Meinl 15" Pure Alloy Extra Hammered Hihat

Available from Gear4Music at £413.00 ($525).

The Meinl 15" Pure Alloy Extra Hammered Hihat is a versatile and high-quality cymbal designed for drummers of all styles. With a medium-thin top and medium bottom these hihats offer a unique sound with additional hammering throughout. The result is a pre-EQd cymbal with a dry attack in the upper-mid frequencies providing a clear and focused voice. These hihats also have a touch of sizzle and crunch in the low end adding rich warmth and a naturally compressed response. You can open the top cymbal for thick barks or close them for a dry foot chick. When fully opened they produce a robust wash with plenty of volume and push. Crafted with Meinls renowned Pure Alloy material these hihats offer a timeless voice that is expressive in virtually any style. The fully lathed surfaces provide polished definition and a velvety wash creating shimmering smooth sounds that respond to your stick with ease. Thanks to computerised hammering and expert craftsmanship in Germany these hihats deliver a sustain that is medium to short volume that is medium to low and a mid-dark timbre with a high-mid pitch. Their medium-thin weight and pinpoint lathe contribute to their excellent stick definition. Finished in a traditional style these hihats are a must-have for any drummer looking for professional-grade cymbals.
