We are big fans of these because they can go on cymbals or snare or toms or whatever. We just put up a sample pic, so yours won’t look like this but it’ll sound like this!

Our best-selling item in 2020 - the Bottle Cap Ching Ring!

This useful little creation "activates" much easier on a hi hat cymbal than any of our hand rattles do. The sixteen pairs of bottle caps on the ring are lightweight and quite responsive. The ring can obviously flex, bend and become somewhat amorphous because of the chain at its core.

Depending on how you position or play your hi hats, this thing may move off center - and that's not a bad thing! Because the chain is not stiff, the ring can be pulled toward to edge of the hi hats, for added effects when the hats are played closed (see video). The ring can also be used for cool rattle effects on toms and snares, even if it only resembles a pile of bottle caps by that point. And while not nearly as controlled as our hand rattles, the ring can be played by hand, the caps producing a brighter, more shimmery tone as a result of their flattened shape.

In an already crowded market of jingly hi hat things, we'd like to believe, the different materials and construction allow for some flexibility and different tones than what's already available. Be sure to check the video to see it in action - the hi hats in the video are 14".

This is THE place for vintage drums, fantastic service, and a great community. I've never felt more welcome and at home in a music store than I do here. Keep doing what you are doing!”
