Zildjian 14″ I Series Mastersound Hi-hat Cymbals – Traditional HiHats

14" B8 Hats with an Airlock-preventing Wave

Zildjian’s I Family of cymbals beckons drummers to explore new Zildjian sizes and designs without breaking the bank. The 14" Zildjian I mastersound hi-hats give you high output and expression thanks to their thin-weight B8 bronze construction. Small-bore hammering across the entire face of the cymbals, as well as fully lathed playing surfaces, lends the 14" Zildjian I mastersound hi-hats a mature wash and glassy response that can really stand out in a mix without overtaking it. What's more, a special mastersound edge along the bottom cymbal helps prevent airlock and enhances foot for a well-defined "chick". A medium-sheen, traditional finish gives these hats a look that will be right at home among the rest of your Zildjian collection.

Zildjian I Series: an overview
Zildjian’s intrepid I Series cymbals are thinly crafted from bold, cutting B8 bronze and treated to extensive small, round hammering to unlock the rich musical character within. Fully lathed surfaces give each cymbal in the line a glassy response, while thin weights and slim profiles provide maturity and expression that can normally be lacking in this price range. If you’re a drummer who’s looking to round out a cymbal collection or branch out into trash crashes and mastersound hi-hats, the Zildjian I Family of cymbals comes highly recommended by drummers we know.

Inspirationat every turn
The “I” in “I Series” comes from ilham, the Turkish word for inspiration. We feel this is a fitting name, not only for the sonic variety to be found in this cymbal series, but also for the value it offers in its price point.
