Bosphorus 14 inch hi-hats with a pronounced New Orleans character
If you want 14 inch hi-hats with a raw, authentic sound, the Bosphorus New Orleans Series stands out right away. These hi-hats are hand-hammered and partially lathed on both the top and bottom, with a continuous spiral running from the inside outward.
That distinctly rough lathing technique gives the Bosphorus hi-hats a very focused stick attack. When crashed, the decay stays dry and short, so the cymbal response remains direct and clear.
Well suited to recording and a direct cymbal response
That dry, short response makes these hi-hats especially suitable for recording. If you need 14 inch hi-hats for studio work or home recording that speak clearly without spreading out for too long, this Bosphorus pair fits that use well.
The New Orleans Series is built around a clearly defined cymbal character. At Magna Music, you can also get personal advice from staff who are musicians themselves if you want to compare different hi-hats and cymbal styles.
