“The Lunar Hats speak completely, their sound as rich and luminous as a full moon at its peak.” — Anika Nilles

Handcrafted in Turkey from premium B20 bronze, the Lunar Hats feature traditional hand hammering, narrow blade lathing, and a traditional finish. Their Heavy weight construction delivers a confident, articulate response with a warm, rich tonal character, balanced by medium sustain and controlled volume. With a mid-bright voice and pronounced high-mid frequencies, they provide excellent definition, clarity, and musicality across a wide range of playing styles.

Ideal for metal, hard rock, progressive, rock, pop fusion, and studio applications, the Lunar Hats offer the presence and authority required for demanding performances while maintaining the nuance and versatility needed for expressive playing. Whether recording or performing live, they deliver a distinctive sound with exceptional character and control.
