The 14" K Constantinople HiHats utilize the same newer hammering techniques as the K Constantinople Crashes, allowing them to open up with more dark overtones, distinction, and musicality than ever before. The new pin lathe, added to the top and bottom of each cymbal, serves as an additional tonal groove, adding to the overall complexity of the sound produced. Additionally, the new pin lathe enhances the visual appearance of these cymbals giving them a vintage look similar to earlier K's from the '60s.
