The 20″ AAX Medium Crash from SABIAN introduces a whole new palette of sound to the AAX line. The larger raw bell adds more meat for more projection. A whole new style of hammering – much more visible on the surface of the cymbal due to the larger, rounder peen – makes for a more complex and slightly darker crash. At the same time, more highs are introduced into the sound, resulting in a wider band of frequency. For drummers, that means brighter highs and more complex lows. SABIAN has always pushed the boundaries of innovation, using the latest manufacturing technology to answer new trends in music and sound. AAX Medium Crashes are no exception, answering the call for brighter, faster, more complex crashes

The 900 series is handmade from Paiste 2002 bronze.
This material is characterised by its flexible application possibilities. It is suitable both for thin cymbals that should be warm and easy to vibrate, as well as for use with rock and heavy cymbals, which should be stable, powerful and effective.
The handwork in this series of Cymbals consists of Turning and Hammering.

The Swiss-handcrafted Paiste Masters Dark Crash/Ride truly excels as both a crash and as a ride cymbal. Its warm wash and papery attack are offset by a dry, defined ping and smoky, focused bell tone — which suits it quite well for jazz, blues, rock, and any style of music that places dynamic control in the drummer's hands. The Masters Dark Crash/Ride's traditional B20 (CuSn20) bronze construction delivers exceptional musical character and an expressive range of sounds.

Sound Character: Dark, dry, woody. Fairly wide range, complex mix. Soft, responsive feel. Full, warm, open sound. Loose, soggy chick sound. Perfectly suited for traditional swing patterns, but also well usable for other acoustic style
