Gibraltar SC-DC Hi-Hat Drop Clutch

pauliusdante 31.12.2021

While palying double bass, sometimes you just want silent and crisp sounding hats. This Gibraltar product is perfect in these situations.
First of all. Clutch lever position. It's sticking out to the side. So it means that you do not need to do extra moves ( for example when clutch lever is in up position), you do not need to change the trajectory of your drum stick.
Material - sturdy metal. It should last for a long time.
One slightly bad thing. The spring inside the mechanism is too tight. Sometimes you need to hit harder to make it drop the cymbal.
In my personal opinion - 9/10
Really does it's job.

Great product - usual Gibraltar quality.

A bit 'sticky' at first, so needed a good wack... Loosening up nicely after a couple of weeks use.

Always re-engages perfectly.

This is a great little device from gibraltar. Very easy to use and adjust, makes playing closed hi hat and using a double bass drum pedal a dream by just tapping the top lever them by just stepping on the hi hat pedal resumes to normal play. A definite buy for the double bass drummer

Does the job but...

It works perfectly fine as long as you hit the hats softly once you've released the drop clutch.

If you hit the hi hats too hard, the lower part holding the hats will reattach to the top.

Also, the rubber bar that you hit could do with being longer as well, as you have to be quite precise to engage it.
