Paiste Signature Reflector Series 14" Heavy Full Hi Hats

The Reflector Heavy Full Hi-Hat in 14" was designed as a counterpart to the Reflector Heavy Full Crash. As such, this very balanced model offers the responsiveness and control of a medium weight Hi-Hat yet features consistent cutting power and strength and a fairly dirty, full, barking and piercing sound character. Signature cymbals are entirely made by hand in Switzerland using traditional methods that have remained unchanged in over half a century. Reflector is a trade-marked, proprietary surface treatment technology that was developed by Paiste in the 1980s to create cymbals with a brilliant finish that is applied entirely by hand, thus avoiding the adverse effects of polishing agents and buffing heat.

Fairly dirty, full, cutting, rich. Fairly wide range, complex mix. Very responsive feel. Full, barking and piercing, yet somewhat cushy open sound. Tight and rough chick sound. A very balanced hi-hat with a healthy dose of dirt and a note of darkness, featuring enhanced power for players that require a consistently strong pair of hi-hats.
