Pearl Rapid Lock Super Grip Hi-hat Clutch Reviews
Experience firsthand the revolutionary advantages of Pearl’s Rapid Lock Super Grip Hi-hat Clutch! Thanks to a lightning-fast pinch-and-release mechanism, a simple squeeze of the bottom locking nut will release the top cymbal for easy placement, locking back up to the exact feel you’re going for with the locking top adjustment nut. When you’re setting up and tearing down at a show, this tool is perfect for taking away some of the stress from dealing with small components like hi-hat screws. Sweetwater drummers concur: if you’re a gigging drummer, then your life just got a whole lot easier with Pearl’s Rapid Lock Super Grip Hi-hat Clutch!
Best Pearl clutch on the market
After years of frustration dealing with constantly-loosening clutches, I finally found "the one" that locks in place. Super easy to take apart/put together. Hands down the best clutch I've ever used!
Unexpected results
Done are the days of spending $ on clutches that strip out, loosen while playing, and thread in/out for setup/tear down.
So, the obvious pros are implied by the above. Stays tight, quick clamp and release, wildly quality piece (this this is actually kinda heavy).
So, what I didn't expect, was how my hats sound and feel after upgrading the clutch.
Sound-wise, there seems to be more clarity and cleanliness in the sizzle and pedal-hat chiks. The response between the pedal and movement of the top hat is wild. On top of that, playing my hats feels almost…buttery. I no longer feel the shock of the hit travel up my wrist.
I don't know if it's in my head or what, but after just sending it and spending way more than I thought I needed for just a clutch, I'm kinda laughing at myself for not having done it sooner. Such a drastic difference.
Greg, my guy, my Sweetwater magician, you're a real one.
