Istanbul DH16 Traditional Dark 16" Hi-Hats

The thinnest model in the Traditional Series Hi‐hats delivers a darker, lower pitched tone with a controlled open sound and a fatter, softer response when closed. Its versatile character makes it an excellent choice for drummers seeking musicality and expression.

Previously known as "Traditional Light", this hi‐hat carries forward the heritage of the series with refined craftsmanship and a highly musical presence. Its thin weight allows for greater sensitivity and dynamic range, making it ideal for nuanced playing styles.

The Traditional Series Cymbals are fully lathed on both the top and bottom, producing rich, warm overtones and a classic sound. Available in weights from paper‐thin to heavy, the series offers a broad selection to suit any genre, ensuring every drummer can find the perfect match for their style.
