These hi-hats are gorgeous. Being 15" they have a large, robust and slosshy feel to them. You might be thinking 'what about the 'chick' aspect, since they are larger it might not be as pronounced but they have all that!!! The chick/definition is slightly darker,airy and fluffier than your normal 14"s. These hats are classy and gorgeous. My experience would not be complete without THOMANN!! I have ordered from these guys for a few years now and have never had any problems. THOMANN!!!!!!!!
