Istanbul Agop 15″ Xist Dry Dark Brilliant Hi-Hat Cymbals

£275.00

The Istanbul Agop 15″ Xist Dry Dark Brilliant Hi-Hat Cymbals offer a bold, characterful sound that blends low-pitched darkness with a bright, cutting attack. Designed for drummers who want expressive, modern hi-hats with plenty of personality, this pair features a very thin top cymbal combined with a medium-heavy bottom for added control, projection and versatility. Slightly heavier than the original Xist Dry Dark model, these hi-hats deliver increased volume while retaining their signature dry, trashy tone.

Key Features:

• 15″ hi-hat cymbal pair with a dark, trashy tonal character
• Bright, pointed attack for clear articulation
• Very thin top cymbal for fast, expressive response
• Medium-heavy bottom cymbal for added control and projection
• Slightly increased weight compared with the original Xist Dry Dark model
• Bottom cymbal works exceptionally well as a stack component
• Top cymbal can be used as an explosive, dry crash
• Crafted from premium B20 bronze
• Brilliant finish for a striking visual presence
