15" Istanbul Agop Cindy Blackman Santana Mantra Hi-Hats

Product Description

15" hi-hats from Istanbul Agop, a signature model by Cindy Blackman Santana. The Mantra series is designed as a counterpart to her OM series, adding higher volume and greater attack while keeping a musical balance of warm overtones. A great choice when you need more projection and cut without losing a rich, dark sound.

The Mantra hi-hats are meant to complement the OM series rather than replace it. Where the OM hi-hats sit darker and more controlled, the Mantra brings a brighter, more open character with sharper attack, while still holding on to warmth and a dark low end.

Sound Character

These hi-hats are described as a little brighter, louder and more open than the OM hi-hats, while remaining quite dark and crisp in the attack. They work well in situations that call for greater projection and cut in the mix, without sacrificing a rich, dark foundation.

Who It's For

A good choice if you like the dark, warm character of the OM series but want a bit more openness, volume and attack, for example in louder musical settings.
