The Istanbul Agop Cindy Blackman OM series was developed in collaboration with Cindy Blackman-Santana in her quest to create the perfect sound. With its classic power-jazz qualities and nod to Tony Williams, this line is capable of withstanding intense playing and captures the vibrant, dynamic cymbal tones of Jazz's golden age.

Reviews
"I was very surprised with these hi hats. I expected them to be much darker than they actually are. Perhaps it was the dark finish that was giving me that expectation. However, apart from looking incredibly cool, they are versatile, fun to play, and dynamically reasonable. These cymbals provide volume when needed, but also respond very well with quieter playing. Don't let the cymbal's finish trick you into thinking these can't be used for a louder gig! It is also worth noting that I could see Bruce Wayne playing these hi hats if he was a drummer." - Braden Cox
"Dynamic, jazz range encompassing Cindy's musical experiences. The 15" Om hi-hats possess a wonderfully deep note, offering a beguiling mix of characteristics from dry when closed tight, through fat when shouldered, to sloshy when half open. Their size makes them capable of being loud but their mellowness prevents them from getting anywhere near grating." - Adam Jones
