Zildjian K1413 15" K Custom Special Dry Hi-Hat Pair
Raw, Earthy Hi-Hat Tone with Modern Expressiveness
The Zildjian K1413 15" K Custom Special Dry Hi-Hats offer a bold, earthy tonality crafted for modern drummers who demand texture, dryness, and character. Remastered from the original Special Dry concept, these hats deliver a dry, funky sound with a quick, fast attack, lots of organic dirt, and a rapid decay – ideal for contemporary styles such as funk, hip-hop, fusion, and modern R&B.
Thin Top, Heavy Bottom: Power Meets Control
This pairing features a thin top cymbal and heavy bottom, producing a powerful, solid chick with a darker stick definition. When opened, the hats give a dirty, mid-pitched bark that cuts without overwhelming the mix. Their raw, natural finish further contributes to their gritty, unrefined sound, making them perfect for expressive drummers seeking controlled articulation with a unique tonal identity.
Premium Cast Bronze for Depth and Durability
Constructed from cast bronze, the K1413 embodies Zildjian’s premium craftsmanship, balancing durability with deep, complex tone. These hi-hats respond beautifully across nuanced playing, from quiet studio passages to punchy, groove-driven live performance.
