General

Along with Zildjian, Paiste and Meinl, Sabian is considered as one of the 'big four' cymbal manufacturers, and rightly so! The company was founded in 1981 by Robert Zildjian, who left his family's company after his older brother Armand took the reins there. Armed with years of experience and a great knowledge of the trade, he founded his own cymbal manufacturing company named Sabian - a name that derives from the names of his three children, Sally, Bill and Andy (SaBiAn).

Sabian HHX series

The HHX series of cymbals is the modern counterpart to the vintage-sounding HH series, that was designed to add some aggression and attack to the dark, moody sound of hand-hammered cymbals. It is a line of high-end, 'Modern Dark' cymbals, cast from Sabian's special B20 bronze alloy (which contains 20% tin and traces of silver). These cymbals are hand-hammered by the master artisans at Sabian and tend to have a dark, yet powerful sound and a mid to low pitch. While retaining the personal qualities of hand-hammered cymbals, the HHX series also features Sabian's 'Tone Projection' design that enhances tone and projection.

Sabian HHX 18-inch Evolution O-Zone Crash cymbal

The HHX Evolution cymbals were designed in collaboration with renowned drummer Dave Weckl. While they remain true to the 'Modern Dark' classification of the HHX series, the Evolution line was designed to provide low resistance and speak with clarity, while also being exceedingly consistant across the board. This 18-inch Evolution O-Zone crash offers you a bit more bite and a slightly trashier sound than a regular crash, thanks to the 2-inch holes that are punched through the bow, which alter the way that sound travels through the metal.

Zeer tevreden over deze cymbal. Als je een beetje van trashy cymbals houd is dit wel een schoonheid. Ieder zijn smaak natuurlijk.

De levering was super in orde. Voor 22:00 uur besteld is echt de volgende dag in huis. Prima verpakt met luchtzakken.
