Paiste RUDE rare 80’s vintage multi-purpose 14in hi-hats

Paiste’s official description;

“These definitely different cymbals were inspired by the revolution of punk and metal during the late 1970s.

The Rude series continues as the leading choice for Rock, Metal and Punk.

14″ Rude Hi-Hats are a versatile, all-round Hi-Hat for loud playing.”

The top cymbal only weighs 880gms and the bottom 1150, which give these hi-hats more sensitivity, more warm sizzle,

And make them easier to play than many modern day hi-hats that come with a much heavier top and bottom.

My description:

Back in the day, these were ground-breaking musical weapons for hard-hitting rockers.

Nowadays these vintage models are extremely hard to find but still sound distinctive, dirty and raw!

Alex Van Halen immortalized Rude cymbals in Van Halen’s ‘Jump’ video and on the band’s ‘1984’ album.

This legendary Rude series of hi-hats are ideal for rock, metal, punk, and other raw, louder musical styles.

Medium bright, raw, energetic.

Full feel and controllable.

Raw, loud open sound.

Tight, cutting ‘chick’ sound.

Versatile, all-round hi-hat for loud playing.

Top: 880gms

Bottom: 1150gms

Used cleaned and in very good condition. [HH 0387]

The RRP for the new version of these hi-hats is $899

My price is just $295

This price is firm.
