14″ HHX Anthology High Bell Bottom Hi-Hat Cymbals
The HHX Anthology High Bell Bottom delivers a responsive, articulate hi-hat with a pronounced bell that cuts through any mix. This pair sits comfortably under the foot with reliable stick response, offering that signature Sabian clarity without excessive wash. Built for recording sessions and live performance where definition and projection from your top cymbal are non-negotiable in both tight and open playing situations.
Tone & Character
The large, pronounced bell generates bright, cutting tones with excellent note definition—essential for capturing clarity and presence across jazz, fusion, and contemporary styles in the studio. The B20 bronze construction delivers warm undertones beneath the cutting edge, ensuring these cymbals translate well through tracking and sit decisively in the mix without muddying surrounding instruments.
Construction & Craftsmanship
Each cymbal features fully lathed exterior surfaces paired with unlathed interiors, balancing brightness with tonal complexity for accurate mic placement and controlled room reflections. Individual weight specifications are marked inside the bell, allowing you to match pairs precisely and achieve consistent performance characteristics across multiple takes and sessions.
