Zultan 14" Mellow Hi-Hat

I wanted some lighter high hats, but they feel to me to be as heavy as my Zildjian New Beats.

I put them on the stand and I played a few strokes and immediately thought that they don't sound at all like what I need from Hi-Hats for recording.

Really thin and hollow sounding, but at the same time, not really quieter or lighter than normal hats to me.

If you want just quiet cymbals for practice, I recommend some of the more affordable options from Millenium or other competitors.

On a good note for Zultan, I have the 12" Splash and I really like it, and it sounds great on recordings.
