Detail 01
Raw bottom hat and raw top bell
These raw areas are part of the design used to manage overtones; the top bell also offers its own sound when struck.

Independent shopping perspective
Built for drummers who need hi-hats to remain defined alongside heavy guitars and synths, this 16-inch Energy pair combines heavier weights with controlled overtones at high volume. The raw bottom hat helps keep the sound focused, while the unlathed raw bell on the top cymbal adds a separate striking option. Hand hammering and tapered bow lathing leave the edges especially thin, supporting a quick attack and responsive feel despite the added weight.
