Dream Cymbals Contact Hi-Hat Cymbals

Contact hats are the heavier, more traditional pair in the range. Closed, they are focused and direct with crisp stick response. Open, they shimmer with enough bite to carry funk, rock, fusion or jazz. Four sizes from 13 in to 16 in.

Each one is cast from Dream's B20 bronze, then hammered and lathed by hand rather than pressed, which is why two cymbals of the same size are never quite identical. Diameters offered here run 13 in, 14 in, 15 in and 16 in, each ordered as its own part number.
