Sabian AAX 21 tums Raw Bell Dry Ride cymbal

Allmänt

Sabian is one of the most famous cymbal manufacturers in the world. The company was founded in 1981 by Robert Zildjian, when his older brother became the head of the Zildjian company. Armed with a lifetime of knowledge and experience, he started over and created a company named after his three children, Sally, Bill and Andy (SaBiAn). Over time, Sabian grew into the respected company it is today, and now belongs to what has been dubbed 'the big four', along with Zildjian, Paiste and Meinl.

Sabian AAX series

Today, Sabian is known for their innovative cymbals, and the AAX line is what started it all. Like the AA-series, it consists of machine-made B20 bronze cymbals. The AAX series, however, receives very different hammering and lathing treatments, which results in a very different sound. It also has the exclusive Auto-Focus Response feature. Where other cymbals have a 'response threshold', meaning they sound best once they reach a certain volume, AAX cymbals respond with total accuracy at all dynamic levels, from low to high volumes.

Sabian AAX 21-inch Raw Bell Dry Ride

The 21-inch AAX Raw Bell Dry Ride is an extremely versatile cymbal, and it will be a great addition to your drum set regardless of your style of music. It has a crystal-clear, well-defined stick response and delivers a nice ping when played on the bow, without much wash. Furthermore, when you hit the unlathed (raw) bell, you'll get a powerful, bright punch that clearly stands out. When played on the edge, this cymbal is quite crashable and produces a great wash.
