Sabian A1402 Artisan 14" Hi-Hats

Dark, Dry Hi-Hat Control with Responsive Foot Feel

The Sabian Artisan 14 inch Hi-Hats deliver a refined combination of dry articulation, dark tonal character and excellent sticking clarity. Hand-hammered from B20 alloy, they respond with a soft, sensitive feel under both stick and pedal, giving drummers expressive control across subtle dynamics. Their dry nature keeps the sound tight and contained, providing crisp stick definition and a smooth, earthy chick when closed. When played partially open, they produce a textured wash that feels musical without overpowering the mix. Ideal for players who value nuance, foot response and tonal depth, these hi-hats feel authentic and controlled in both acoustic and electric settings.

At Riffs & Licks Music, we think these hi-hats are perfect for drummers seeking articulate control, dark texture and expressive playing feel.
