Amazing for jazz
I had the pleasure of playing this and the companion 20" ride (ASIN B0002D051Y) for a few hours and was astonished by the sound.The "chick" this cymbal produces can be easily heard at any band volume. When using this as an open or partially open ride the sound is not cutting, but the sustain washes over you beautifully. Riding in the fully closed position produces a nice, high volume click.

This cymbal pair would not work well in rock or R&B, but is an amazing hi-hat for jazz and swing. If you mainly play those genres this pair is possibly the best set of hi-hats you can get. I strongly recommend that you match your other cymbals by using the crash and ride cymbals from the same Vintage CIE line to get an across-the-board authentic and consistent sound. ... Read more
