  • Don’t spend $622 on a stock photo and a guess at what your hihats will sound like! 

  • That sucks!!  Have a listen to this exact pair in AMAZING CONDITION so you can buy with confidence!

  • And guess what?? They’re 25 years old!! That makes for some damn sweet sounding cymbals!! Like incredible. 
  • Extremely CLEAN Top of the line Paiste Traditional Medium Light 14” Hihats that are getting increasingly harder to find these days.  

  • These things look about 25 days old. But they’re 25 years old.
  •  Incredible Paistes. Not clanky. Exceptionally smooth and dark with a mellowed softness. 

  • Top cymbal is fully lathed and golden warm while the bottom cymbal is raw, unlathed and looks like the moon!! 

  • Paiste describes their flagship series as:
    "Dark, dry, woody. Fairly wide range, complex mix. Soft, responsive feel. Full, warm, open sound. Loose, soggy chick sound. Perfectly suited for traditional swing patterns, but also well usable for other acoustic styles like Blues, Country, Soul or Gospel.”

  • As far as 14s” go, these are pretty damn dark sounding cymbals but still possess that inimitable paiste clean and crisp tone - the tone their famous for. 
     
  • Aged, softer, mellower, played in feel but they look perfect.  

  • Dark, low-pitched, mellow, very warm. Fantastic chick tone.  

  • 896 and 1244 grams yield a fantastic chick still with that inimitable clean Paiste tone.

  • The now renowned Traditional Series was a foray into Paiste's dark tones and these hats are some of the finest I’ve heard.  

  • Great at lower volumes but surprisingly capable at medium loud settings too.

  • Pristine shape.  No issues.  Don’t spend $622 on a guess at some stiff sounding big box store new ones.  

  • Listen to this exact pair and actually save money and augment tone.  They’re gorgeous.
