The Meinl Anika Nilles Lunar Hats are a 14" limited edition Artist Design Cymbal — a serialised, individually engraved pair of hi-hats that combines Anika Nilles' original artwork with a genuinely exceptional B20 bronze instrument. Each pair is numbered, making it as much a collector's piece as a performance cymbal.

"The Lunar Hats speaks completely, their sound as rich and luminous as a full moon at its peak." — Anika Nilles

Hand-hammered from B20 bronze in Turkey with narrow blade lathing and a traditional finish, the Lunar Hats deliver a warm, rich character with medium sustain and volume — a mid-bright, high-mid pitched hi-hat that works beautifully across metal, hard rock, progressive, rock, pop fusion, and studio contexts. At Heavy weight in a 14" format, they offer the authority and presence that demanding playing styles require, without sacrificing musicality.
