Sabian AAX Thin Crash Brilliant 20-inch

General

For a truly versatile crash, you need the Sabian AAX Thin Crash Brilliant 20-inch. In subtle playing it can also be used as a washy ride. But it also has a versatile sound as a crash. It is quite high and bright by itself. The brightness is enhanced by the brilliant finish, while at the same time more complex low is created by using a hammer with a larger head. This also makes the cymbal thinner, which, combined with the slightly smaller bell, ensures that the cymbal is quick to address.

AAX Thin Crash Brilliant 20-inch in balance

With all these frequencies, a cymbal can quickly start to sound annoying because it seems like a hotchpotch of tones. Not so the AAX Thin Crash Brilliant 20-inch. This is because it has been given the "Autofocus Response" treatment. This treatment ensures that all frequencies are always balanced and ugly overtones are filtered out. Another advantage, you have this effect with any playing style. The sound always remains balanced, both when you play a light accent quietly and when you hit with full force.
