Zultan 15" Raw Hi-Hat

I love this hihat. The size (15 inch) and the rawness gives it a somewhat complicated sound spectrum. Hihat lifts just sounds great. Maybe it is due to my hihat stand configuration, but I can't get it to sound pingy. It always comes with some trashyness when hit. For some reason I think this trashyness works great in any kind of music - from math rock to jazz. Accented notes have a different sound than tap strokes. This gives them quite a lot of impact when playing patterns where you alternate - for example 8/8 with accent on every other note.

I have had this hat for 2 year, I think. And I still find new interesting ways to hit it or groove with it.
