Fashioned with a uniform sheet-cut construction, machine-precise uniform hammering, and the pleasantly bright B8 alloy, the Sabian 14" B8 Hi-Hats find the perfect bridge between quality craftsmanship and entry-level affordability. The tight concentric lathing keeps a focused tone whether you're playing open or closed, and the treble-oriented tonality keeps your sound articulate and present in the mix. Typically associated with beginners, these cymbals are also useful for saving a buck and keeping something bright in your set up.
