The all New 2015 Tiger 14" Hi-Hat Cymbals are carefully designed from fine brass great sounding student level pair of cymbals, ideal as an upgrade from basic hi-hats that come with starter drum kit sets.
Used throughout contemporary popular music, Hi-Hats consist of two cymbals that are mounted on a specialist stand, one on top of the other, and clashed together using a pedal on the stand. A narrow metal shaft or rod runs through both cymbals into a hollow tube, connecting to the pedal.
When struck closed or played with the pedal, the hi-hat gives a short, crisp, muted percussive sound. Adjusting the gap between the cymbals can alter the sound of the open hi-hat from a shimmering, sustained tone to something similar to a ride cymbal. When struck with a drumstick, the cymbals make either a short, snappy sound or a longer sustaining sandy sound depending on the position of the pedal.
The Tiger 14" Hi-Hat Cymbals are a popular choice with beginners looking to accomplish themselves behind the drum kit, and students on a budget.
