The 13" Gen16 Buffed Bronze Hi-Hat Top Cymbal from Zildjian is a reduced volume acoustic cymbal that provides up to 70% reduced output in comparison to a similarly-sized hi-hat cymbal thanks to its pattern of holes. It is designed to produce a warmer tone than a standard nickel-plated cymbal. While it is an acoustic cymbal, it can be integrated into Zildjian's Gen16 electronic system for used with an E-drum kit
