Designed in collaboration with Japanese drumming legend Akira Jimbo, the Zildjian K Custom Hybrid Hi-Hat Top cymbal blends tradition and innovation for a unique sonic character. Featuring a striking brilliant inner finish and traditional lathed outer edge, this cymbal offers a distinctive tonal fusion of dark warmth and modern brightness.
Its hybrid hammering pattern delivers increased articulation and controlled wash, making it ideal for both recording and live settings. The 14.25″ size gives you the power and projection of a 14″ hi-hat with the articulation of a smaller cymbal perfect for players seeking precision without sacrificing presence.
