Sabian AAX Chinese with Big Definition & a Mature China for Refined Tastes

Got a metal breakdown in need of a pulse? Sweetwater has your new timekeeper: the Sabian AAX X-Treme Chinese cymbal. This powerful, focused cymbal hits with the punch and speed of a heavyweight boxer’s uppercut. Its inner bell also has a wonderfully metallic sound that complements rhythmic ride cymbal-like patterns (think Neil Peart’s groove on Rush’s “YYZ”). Those looking for a China cymbal that slams through the chuggiest djent or widest Stephen Carpenter-style barre chords have met their match in the Sabian AAX X-Treme Chinese cymbal.

Fast, Dark, and Explosive — Meet the Sabian AAX Thin China

Sabian casts all its top-end cymbals from a centuries-old recipe of copper, tin, and silver — also known as B20 bronze. This bell bronze is one of the most musical alloys on earth, and together with Sabian’s expert craftsmanship, is the secret to the 19″ Sabian AAX Chinese’s ear-pleasing partials and complex characteristics.
