The Fame Pure Hybridual hi-hat 8" is a high-end hybrid cymbal pair made of B20 bronze , hand-hammered in Turkey . The Hybridual cymbals from Fame convince with fast response , complex sound and professional workmanship in all aspects. The elaborate hybrid finish is perfected in a well-known Turkish factory in many steps. The inside of the cymbal remains unlathed (Raw) and the outer rim is provided with a brilliant finish. In addition, the sound becomes even more multilayered through the irregular hammer marks on the surface.
The sound of the Fame Hybridual series unfolds its full potential when played moderately. The versatile arranged hammer marks create an irregular compression of the B20 base material, which makes the sound relatively short, but at the same time results in a wide, dry and full response. The slightly trashy and earthy cymbal sound of the Fame Hybridual series, offers ideal conditions for modern drumming at a high level. The almost attack and the complex sound spectrum predestine the Hybridual cymbals for the versatile use in the studio and on stage, because they are well controllable at any time. In addition, the Dual Finish from Raw and Brilliant causes a multifaceted appearance of the cymbals.

B20 cymbals are the supreme discipline of cymbal forging, and the majority of professional cymbals are made of this alloy. The forging process begins with a heated piece of metal, which is brought into its typical shape by rolling, hammering and rolling again. In addition, the top of the cymbal is usually punched in by machine. Now comes the most important part: In painstaking manual work, the cymbal is hammered, giving it an individual pattern and profile. Each piece is unique!
