Zildjian New Beat Hats have long been considered to be among the most versatile hi hat cymbals on the market. These industry standard hats were designed by legendary drummer Louie Bellson to possess an ideal combination of stick and chick sound. New Beat Hats are symmetrically machine hammered and lathed with a traditional wide groove, which projects a traditional tone that is pure, bright, and expressive. This set of 15" New Beat Hi Hat Cymbals are warm and dynamic, and would make a great set of hats for all kinds of musical genres. We carry a huge Zildjian inventory at the Drum Center of Portsmouth.
