Istanbul Agop Xist 10" Dry Dark Hi-Hats

The Istanbul Xist cymbals have a musical and modern sound. They provide clear, articulate sticking and a dark, warm crash with moderate overtones.

By combining modern production techniques with traditional cymbal making processes, Istanbul cymbals are able to offer professional, cast B20 (80 Copper, 20 Tin) cymbals at a price that is accessible to drummers at any level. 

Pointed, dark and trashy attack with a fast decay. Insert an additional 10” Dry Dark Splash (not included) resting in the bottom cymbal for an even greater attack, a more prominent chick sound and ever quicker decay, or use it as an alternate bottom cymbal for a low volume, soft hi-hat pairing that retains crisp sticking.

When not used as a Hi-Hat pair, the top cymbal makes for a quick and trashy splash and the bottom can be used as an accent bell or rested on a drum as a mute or alternate sticking surface.
