Description
The Paiste 14 Traditional Medium Light Hi Hat is a lively, warm cymbal that’s great for Blues and country styles but would fit well in most genres. The signature series are a great choice when you’re looking for a hi hat with real character and warm, pronounced tone.
Sound Character:
Dark, dry, woody. Fairly wide range, complex mix. Soft, responsive feel. Full, warm, open sound. Loose, soggy chick sound. Perfectly suited for traditional swing patterns, but also well usable for other acoustic styles like Blues, Country, Soul or Gospel.
