Sabian HHX - A legacy refined
The redesigned Sabian HHX collection continues to build on the power and complexity of the B20 HH Series, while adding a two-stage hammering process to unlock deeper shapes of darkness and previously untapped musicality.
Players familiar with the traditional lineup will notice a cymbal that's distinctly thinner and lighter in the hand, and one that's darker and quicker to speak, than its forerunner. A reduced bell yields a lightning-fast response and a balanced attack that's ideal for close-miking applications: studios, bedrooms, houses of worship, and more.
Sabian HHX 14'' Medium Hi-Hat
The HHX hi-hats are dark, controlled and ultimately musical. They are hand-formed from the same B20 bronze alloy responsible for each of Sabian's premium cymbal lines. The HHX 14'' Medium Hats are perfect for any player seeking to capture a taste of the classic HHX dark sound, providing the balance, speed and projection needed to be heard from the stage.
Sabian HHX 16'' Thin Crash
The Sabian HHX 16'' Thin Crash features a natural finish with sparse hammering and lathing. This results in a crash cymbal that is thinner, darker and faster, cutting through any mix with a medium sustain. The HHX cymbals are extremely versatile and can be implemented in any musical style. A smaller bell ensures a faster attack and a crash cymbal that is lighter in weight than most thin crashes.
Sabian HHX 18'' Thin Crash
A thin crash with a shimmering dark tone. The Sabian HHX 18'' Thin Crash features a natural finish with sparse hammering and lathing. This results in a crash cymbal that is thinner, darker and faster, cutting through any mix with a medium/long sustain. The HHX cymbals are extremely versatile and can be implemented in any musical style. A smaller bell ensures a faster attack and a crash cymbal that is lighter in weight than most thin crashes.
Sabian HHX 21'' Thin Ride
The Sabian HHX 21'' Thin Ride features a natural finish with sparse hammering and lathing. This results in a ride cymbal that is thinner, darker and faster, cutting through any mix with a long sustain. The HHX cymbals are extremely versatile and can be implemented in any musical style. A smaller bell ensures a faster attack and a ride cymbal that is lighter in weight than most thin rides.
