Best I Ever Had

| Review By: Isaiah Moore | 5 days, 58 minutes ago

0 people out of 0 found this review helpful

Features:

Wavy bottom designed to release air

Quality:

At this price...you better believe they're quality and can withstand a beating.

Value:
Overall:

When I first placed the "13 hats on the stand and let them click, my Minister of Music immediately turned around in amazement. I looked back with the same look. These hats have an awesome sound. The waves on the bottom hat release the air that sometimes gets trapped in the hats and allows for a crisp click and a ripply open hat sound. Because I have the smaller version, they are higher in tone than I'm used to, but I can definitely see myself getting used to it. I also do not struggle with volume. These things are clear, crisp, and loud. They are the best that I've ever heard. If you're considering, look no further. These will not dissapoint.

You should really read this review.

0 people out of 0 found this review helpful

Features:

Rediculous features. Love the wavy bottom to let air escape to get the tight, crispy closed sound that everybody wants. It helps that the bottom is a lot thicker than the top, too. Also, something about the top cymbal makes it sound a little controlled. Meaning, that it won't sound like a freakin terrible crash/splash hybrid when played open. Mhmm. 

Quality:

Looks beautiful. Sounds beautiful.

Value:

Ehhhh, I really thought it was a steal, but I also got them for a really low price. Therefore, you should definately save up. My friend recently got the Meinl Byzance Dark hats, and I think these blow them outta the water.

Overall:

You know it is good if it says AAX.

14 inch X-Celerator Hats

I bought these hi hats about a year ago and they are the best hi hats I have ever played. I initially had a pair of 14 inch Pitch Black Zildjian hi hats and they don't sound nearly as good as the X-celerator hi hats. Not to mention that Chad Smith from the Red Hot Chili Peppers uses them, and so does Andy Hurley of Fall Out Boy and The Damned Things. Buy these Hats!!!!
