Sabian AAX Series Studio Crash Cymbal  

Comments about Sabian AAX Series Studio Crash Cymbal:

This cymbal, AAX studio crash is 19", is suprisingly dark, but in a good way ! It comes in right between my 18" AAX Dark
crash, slightly lower tone with a little more wash (overtones) and a nice bell for accents and stickwork. However it is slightly brighter than my 18" K Custom Dark crash and less washy than
the K. They blend oohhh so well; along with the 16" & 17" K Custom Hybrids. I'm typically a
Zildjian man, but I am very pleased with these 2 Sabians, they mix well with the K's and cost
less of my hard earned dollars. Sabian did a great job with these!

As soon as I a bought this and played it with my band I loved its dark tone, I compared it to a Zildjian k and it was even darker. It gave a stand out sound and didn't have much of an overtone. It doesn't give you a "gong" effect. I love the musicality and its great for any style of music. I own the 17'

I bought this cymbal like half a year ago and I'm still amazed of its great sound and its good price. A very loud cymbal that cuts through every other sound.simply perfect :)

I've been playing for about 5 years, and was always a huge Zildjian fan until a friend of mine let me borrow his AAX Studios (16" & 18"). I was so impressed with the action, great overtones, and response (soft and loud) that I sold my Zildjian Cymbals and bought my own AAX Studios!

I have been playing for over 17 years, and this is a cymbal that I purchased in the 15" size in 1994 or so. This cymbal has out performed zildjian, Paiste and a load of others. This cymbal is the most brilliant, pure, punchy crash cymbal I have ever had. It can be played explosively, or just for accents, but it always cuts through all the noise, and the music at any sound level. I have also played this cymbal in venues from huge to very small and it has never failed me. Score another one for Sabian!!!

The Sabian AAX studio crash is a great sounding crash. Its loud and wonderful overtones make it stand out in any style of drumming in live or studio situations. The small bell really makes a difference if you hit it gently or hard it will still give you that pure nice ring you want. I would definitely recomend it to any beginner up to advanced.

Hey, everybody! This is a great crash cymbal for a jazz or blues player. The cymbal produces a superb, and loud sound. This is a great price and every jazz and blues player should have one.
