Sabian B8 20-inch Rock Ride

General

As one of the 'big four' cymbal manufacturers (together with Zildjian, Paiste and Meinl), Sabian has long since proven that their great reputation is entirely justified. But while many cymbal manufacturers tend to forget beginning drummers (or drummers on a tight budget), Sabian has always catered to professionals and beginners alike with many excellent choices in both high-end and budget-friendly cymbals.

Sabian B8 20-inch Rock Ride: affordable bronze cymbals

The Sabian B8 line of cymbals is known world-wide as one of the best series of affordable cymbals. All cymbals in this line are made of B8 bronze (hence the name), and the combination of quality materials and attention to detail makes B8 cymbals a great choice for both beginners and advanced drummers on a budget.

This 20-inch Rock Ride is a cymbal that lives up to its name. It is a heavy cymbal that is made for use in loud styles of music and posses the powerful, cutting sound that those genres need. It has a distinctly metallic stick sound, and the bell sound will cut through anything, even the most intense wall of guitar-noise.
