A new and interesting product from WackMaster Drums! Being officially unveiled at NAMM 2008, people were exposed to it and quickly began forming their own opinions.
The WackMaster Hi-Hat adjuster's function is to make it possible to change your hi-hat sound while playing. It is a novel idea with close similarities to the drop hi-hat clutch, with a different twist.
The roses- it is a great idea with the opportunity to improve on. The product could help many drummers seeking an easier way to adjust their sound even during a gig!
The thorns- the functionality of the product doesn't stand out. Most drop clutch's have the same characteristics. Also, it's bulky size leaves no room on the hi-hat stand for accessories. It's a great idea, it just needs a better design.
All in all... the new product has it's pros and cons. Then again, everything has room for improvement these days. If you get a chance, try out WackMaster's Hi-Hat Adjuster.
Watch it in action!
