Need Help Identifying these 14" Hi Hats

Posts: 4 Threads: 2

Does anyone have any idea as to the make of these 14" hi hats? I am guessing that they are from the 60's.

My guess is Italian due to the lathing pattern - but beyond that not sure.

I had a great day! Instead of sleeping in and wasting the day, I got up at 8 and I had all my slacking done by noon!

Thanks, John. I will be seeing these hi hats first hand in June.

Hi, I believe these are very close to the Italian type high hats, which I just received recently. See my post "Vintage 1980s Italian High Hats" that I added to the forum today.

My cymbals also have the red & black metric markings that show on the pictures you've posted. I'd bet that there's a "made in Italy" ink stamp on the bottom of both cymbals too! My cymbals are B20 rotocast bronze and hand hammered and lathed...really nice sounding cymbals!!! Enjoy them, Thanks!Walking
