Forged from the best materials The Sabian AA 18 Thin Crash Cymbal is crafted using Sabians B20 bronze recipe consisting of 80% copper 20% tin and traces of silver. This is commonly used on high-end cymbals for its excellent frequency range making it suitable for a wide range of musical styles. Crafted by experts Hammered using traditional techniques the Sabian AA series is both versatile and full of character. Traditional coarse lathing is applied by Vault Craftsmen which is one contributing factor to the vintage tone offered by AA cymbals. High-profile shaping raises the pitch giving AA cymbals more cut while further small-peen hammering increases stick response. The result is cymbals that offer a vintage inspired sound with enough cut for versatile modern use.
