Hey guys, I'm new to vintage cymbals, but just purchased on eBay a pair of vintage 1970s Zildjian hi hats. The title on the product was "A Zildjian Avedis."
My question is, are these considered New Beats? I was not sure since there is not a logo anywhere that I can see on the cymbals. I did not know if back then, there was a distinction between "New Beats" and regular Avedis hi hats.
The top weighs 946 grams and bottom weighs 1181 grams, which is less than a current pair of New Beat hats. Just the perfect weight for what I'm looking for though.
Thanks!
