Category

Cymbals

Cymbals add accents, timekeeping, colour and dynamics to a drum setup. This category includes hi-hats, rides, crashes, splashes, Chinas and packs, each with different sizes, weights, profiles, alloys, hammering and finishes. Compare stick definition, wash, sustain, response, volume and how the cymbal will blend with the kit and musical style. A cymbal’s sound also depends on mounting and playing technique. Check the exact type and diameter, and remember that cymbal stands, bags and felts may need to be purchased separately.

Hi-Hats

Hi-hats use a pair of cymbals operated by a foot pedal for timekeeping, accents and changing degrees of openness. Compare diameter, top and bottom weights, profile, edge response, chick sound, stick definition and how quickly the cymbals open and close. Some listings are a matched pair, while others describe an individual top or bottom cymbal. Check the wording carefully and remember that a hi-hat stand, clutch, felts and accessories may not be included. The right pair should complement the drummer’s touch, volume and musical style.
