Product Overview
These cymbals 'breathe' and 'give', yet are very sturdy. They are 'airy' in sound yet project and punch through the band. The opportunity to work 'hands on' with a cymbal company has always been my dream." - Dave Weckl.

Product Detail

Sabian HHX Evolution Series Ride
Sabian 12012XEB HHX 20 inch Evolution Ride

Hand crafted from SABIAN's premium B20 bronze
HHX Evolution is hand crafted from SABIAN's premium B20 bronze, the most durable and musical metal used in cymbal making. They are protected by a special SABIAN two-year warranty.

Expanding the award-winning HHX
SABIAN Ltd. is pleased to introduce HHX Evolution, a range of drumset cymbals inspired by and collaborated on with SABIAN endorser Dave Weckl. Featuring the jumbo hammering; lathed surface; and raw, unlathed bell that contribute so greatly to the HHX concept of 'Tone Projection' - a combination of traditional tone and modern projection - Evolution models were created around Weckl's desire for his cymbal playing to 'follow the path of least resistance'. These Evolution models, with their glossy Brilliant Finish, respond to the slightest touch, making them extremely easy to play. An innovative 'Total Response' feature has been designed into HHX Evolution to boost its sensitivity and eliminate the need for players to 'dig' the sound out of the cymbal.

What Dave was looking for
Commented Weckl "HHX is the essence of what I was looking for. It has that warm tone I like so much, but it also has brightness in its high end. For me it's very important to have the right mix - a balance of both. And that's what Evolution is all about. It retains the low end, we've brightened the highs, and we've increased the sensitivity so that the lightest touch of a stick sets it off. But it's not just a matter of being responsive, Evolution puts out its total sound at all times; even at very low levels. That's what I was looking for: cymbals that offered the path of least resistance, so I could focus on what I wanted to play, not how I was going to have to play it.

"The Best Ride I ever played on. " by Drey Wigfall

I purchased this ride a few weeks ago to compliment a 4 piece custom Ludwig set I recently bought. I love this ride. To be honest, this is the first time I've had a cymbal make me feel the desire to play more. I love the bell as well as the ride's smooth sound. I couldn't be more happier with my purchase. Thank you Sabian!

"Perfect cymbal" by Charles Brockus
2/28/2007 2:45:23 AM

Musical Experience: Few bands, musician for 11 years
Style of Music: Indie Alternative
Hometown: St.Louis

I was giving up bass and getting more serious about drums so I took my bass down to my local music store (Mojo's Music) and traded it in on this ride. Man, it surprised me. I was going to try to get a more jazzy feel of the drums, but when I crashed this thing , I knew it could be used for rock. It has really nice stick tones if you use nylon tips rather than wood tips. The bell is just loud enough and this pushes through over a Fender Stage 1600, a Fender Twin, and a 100 watt Fender Rumble bass amplifier. It would really be a good purchase for a rock/indie/jazz musician. I'm behind Zildjian rides and all for Sabian now.
