I don't currently have any 15" Hi-Hats but I do have 13, 14, and 16 inch hats.

The 16s are my personal favorites and were custom produced for me by Sabian cymbal specialist Mark Love. I needed 16 inch hats to show off my Dual Speed Sticking Technique when I played the Cape Breton International Drum Festival and Mark came up with these exceptional sounding beauties. Great for the Heavy Rock stuff!

Another oversized favorite cymbal of mine is a 22" David Garibaldi signature ride, also by Sabian. The huge, cutting sound of the cymbal and bell makes it perfect for the rock and funk gigs.

In my opinion, one can never have enough cymbals!

I've heard GREAT things about the Garibaldi ride - it's definitely on my "to check out" short list.

I've never tried a set of 16" hats - not YET, at least. Steve Jordan has had my interest piqued for years now. :)

I think so, Mike. But try them out first. They may not be your cup of tea.
