Istanbul Agop Mel Lewis Hi-Hats 1982, 13in Overview
Warm, washy sounding hi-hats with clear stick definition and an airy chick.
After Mel Lewis’ death in 1990, his chosen cymbals were flown back to the Istanbul factory and used as models for what would become his Signature Series. Every detail of every individual cymbal has been taken in with exacting detail and replicated. The Mel Lewis Signature Series is our way of paying a tribute to Mel’s legacy.
