Zildjian A Custom Mastersound Hi-Hat Cymbals

A Custom Mastersounds feature the same crisp, rich and colorful sounds associated with the A Custom range, but featuring a bolder, clearer "chick" sound and full-bodied overall sound.

A Custom cymbals deliver a sophisticated expression of classic Zildjian A Series sounds. They feature thinner weights and radically innovative hammering.

Zildjian Hi Hats -- The heart of your set-up.

The Hi-Hat is a timekeeping necessity for all drummers. Because the Hi Hat and the Ride both play a part in keeping time, the relationship between them is very important. They should be selected together, and they should complement each other.

What makes a great Hi Hat

The bottom cymbal should be relatively heavier than the top cymbal. This will ensure a good, clean "chick" sound. It is important that the volume of your Hi Hats balance with your snare and bass drums.
