This is a professional-grade 14-inch A Series Mastersound bottom hi-hat cymbal from Zildjian. The Mastersound design is famous for its factory crimped (scalloped) edges on the bottom cymbal. These ripples serve a critical functional purpose: they vent trapped air rapidly between the two cymbals, effectively eliminating "air lock" and resulting in a much faster, sharper, and more defined "chick" sound when played with the foot.
The cymbal is in very good condition, showing only light signs of use such as minor stick marks and natural patina, with no cracks, keyholing, or flea bites. At a weight of 1350 grams, this bottom cymbal provides the necessary mass to anchor your hi-hat pair, offering a bright, full-bodied tonal range that is versatile enough for almost any musical genre, from rock and pop to jazz and fusion.
This bottom cymbal is a perfect replacement or upgrade for a drummer looking to add more bite and clarity to their current 14-inch hi-hat setup. The crimped edges also add a crisp, sizzling texture when playing the hats slightly open.
