Description
The Zildjian A Custom Mastersound Hi-Hat Pair brings the bright, colorful character of the A Custom line into a heavier, more assertive package. Where standard A Customs lean crisp and articulate, the Mastersound design thickens things up for a fuller, punchier voice that still cuts through a mix.
The bottom cymbal is finished with crimped edges around its perimeter, which trap air between the two cymbals as they close. That trapped air gets forced out quickly on contact, producing a tight, solid “chick” with a short, controlled sustain rather than a washy trail. It’s a design built for drummers who want their foot-hat work to be heard and felt, not just implied.
Weight-wise, the top cymbal is medium thin while the bottom is medium weight, a pairing that balances stick response on top with the low-end punch needed for that fast chick sound underneath. Pitch sits in the mid range, and overall volume is general-purpose rather than extreme in either direction, making these hats a versatile fit for a wide range of playing styles.
