Sabian AAX 18" Thin Crash Cymbal - Brilliant Finish

Sabian’s AAX 18" Thin Crash Cymbal attacks with an exciting sense of urgency that opens up into a rich wash of dark, husky tones. It possesses a bright and expressive bell sound that articulates every subtle nuance and expression, matched with a dynamic, focused crash - qualities that make this cymbal very well suited to studio application. 

That's not to say that this cymbal doesn't hold up live - it produces a balanced mix of volume, projection and cut that explodes into life and slices through a live mix with ease. This quick, explosive attack and controlled focus are thanks to its small bell and brilliant finish that offer a great blend of vibrant energy and dynamic control. The AAX series also features all-new larger-peen hammered surfaces that add a rich and smokey darkness to the 18" Thin Crash’s sonic properties.
