The essentials to know about the Agean BRX 16-inch hi-hat
- Fully handmade traditional construction, with hammering and lathing carried out by hand in Uzunköprü, Turkey.
- The "cut outs" give this hi-hat a more trashy, dry and edgy character, while naturally shortening the sustain.
- Its tin-rich B25 alloy delivers a complex, musical and nuanced response, in the spirit of vintage jazz cymbals.
- Its 16-inch diameter offers a broader presence than a standard hi-hat, ideal for enriching grooves with expressive playing.

Who is this hi-hat for?
The 16-inch Agean BRX hi-hat is aimed at intermediate, advanced and professional drummers looking for a cymbal with character, far from overly smooth or standardized sounds. Its short, textured response makes it ideal for working on foot nuances, quick openings and accents with plenty of personality.
It is particularly well suited to jazz, blues, organic funk, soul, acoustic music and indie projects. Its trashy character can also add an original color to rock, alternative or experimental grooves, especially when you want to keep the cymbal present without taking over the band's sonic space.
