Louis Cato’s cymbals, what hats?

[Jazzhead]

The hats seem like post 2000 model K, not anything earlier than that based on the look, anyone can tell what they are? Maybe 15” K lights? They sound smooth.

The left side crash which sounds awesome (mine didn’t sound like that) is an 18” K custom Fast crash and the ride appears to be a 22” K Dark medium and then another 18” K custom special dry crash.

Edit: the ride is not a 22” KDM
Appears to be a 22” with a brilliant top

Someone who plays guitar, sings, and leads a late night band should NOT be able to play drums that well.

Love that tune, and what a band!

Those hats sound nice and smooth!

Looks like a bite taken out of the top cymbal? I think they're 2 crashes put together. Just a guess.

Good guess. Very good sound.

All I know is that I saw that video the other day and immediately thought the same thing: those hats sound good enough to start a thread on DFO. I got sheepish and thought maybe it would be silly. But now I just feel validated.

Yea I wish someone could chime in with some confidence but I want to say they are 15” K Lights, a well-played example with an edge repair in the top cymbal. It tells you they gotta be a light pair or at least thin top.

This one and also Bridan Blade’s hihats are my favorite, still trying to figure that one out as well.
