We’ve got a limited supply of exotic wood HardHats with some dynamite grain variations. There’s 4 available each of Bocote, Spalted Tamarind, and Marblewood. I tried to convey the colors of each, but you can google those for more pics of the grain patterns and colors. If you’ve already got strips and just need a chassis, let me know in the note and I’ll refund you $10 or throw in a shaker instead of the strips.

The HardHat gives you adjustable sounds like a closed Hi-Hat, but fits in a stick bag and mounts easily. The Index HardHat is made from 4 pieces of metal, stacked interchangeably to provide a sound as loose or as clicky as you want. We use a variety of beautiful woods for the block, all sealed in a durable clear finish, so find a grain that speaks to you go for it! The wood doesn’t change the sound, but the strip options do!

All Exotics come with Standard Steel Strips - 4 strips, 2 of flat steel, 1 of heavier perforated steel for rigidity, and one of separated steel for activity. They ship stacked how I play mine, but you’re free to mix and add and rearrange until you find the sound you’re looking for.
