14" hi-hat from the Fame Pure series
The Fame Pure hi-hat 14" is a hand-hammered pair of cymbals from Turkey, made of B20 bronze in a natural finish. The underside of the Fame cymbal is turned and has a traditional finish. This creates a multi-layered frequency mix with a dark basic character and a dry noise. The Fame Pure cymbals are manufactured and finished by hand in renowned cymbal forges in Turkey to the highest quality standards. The raw and earthy sound is perfect for jazz and funk drummers, but the Fame Pure series is also ideal for vintage drum sets. The cutting, deep tone with its dryness and raw sound is highly recommended for retro drummers and fits perfectly into the mix. The short sustain and defined attack also ensure a great sound in the studio that is easy to handle.
Fame Pure: B20 Bronze for professionals at a low price!
B20 cymbals are the cymbals with the highest bronze content on the market. B20 is a mixture of metals, i.e. an alloy consisting of 80% copper and 20% tin. B20 drum cymbals are the supreme discipline of cymbal forging, and the majority of professional cymbals are made from this alloy. The forging process begins with a heated piece of metal, which is shaped into its typical form by rolling, hammering and rolling, and the top of the cymbal is usually stamped in by machine. Now comes the most important part: the cymbal is painstakingly hammered by hand, giving it an individual pattern and profile. Each piece is unique!
