Fills a Gap Between Hi-Hats and Crashes - The Meinl Anika Nilles Signature 18 Over 18-Inch Deep Hats Stack

From Anika Nilles: "What I really like about my Deep Hats is that they have so many musical applications. They fill the sonic gap between my main hi-hats and my crashes. I play them half-open as a timekeeper, very similar to crash-riding, however, the Deep Hats sound softer and more articulated. That is something I prefer. They have the right amount of wash and trashiness, combined with a soft, dark tone. Absolutely perfect for my style of playing."
