Blanketing their superb stick definition is a sustain that plays out with just the right amount of strength and balanced wash.

The 15” Pure Alloy Extra Hammered Hihats feature a medium-thin top and medium bottom with additional hammering throughout. Sounding pre-EQ’d, they have a dry attack in the upper-mid frequencies giving them a clear and focused voice.
