Core Design & Materials<!--TgQPHd|||[]-->

• B20 Bronze Alloy:<!--TgQPHd|||[]--> Made from premium cast bronze (80% copper, 20% tin), giving it a rich, musical foundation usually reserved for high-end cymbals.<!--TgQPHd|||[]--><!--TgQPHd|||[]-->

• Ported Holes:<!--TgQPHd|||[]--> Features a double-row pattern of multi-sized holes drilled directly into the bow. This significantly reduces the overall weight and mass of the metal.<!--TgQPHd|||[]--><!--TgQPHd|||[]-->

- Pinpoint Lathing & Hammering:<!--TgQPHd|||[]--> Utilizes shaping techniques drawn from Sabian’s elite Evolution and X-Plosion lines to optimize sound projection.<!--TgQPHd|||[]--><!--TgQPHd|||[]-->

Sonic Characteristics<!--TgQPHd|||[]-->

• Trashy & Aggressive:<!--TgQPHd|||[]--> The hole pattern cuts down on traditional, clean ring. It replaces it with a dirty, explosive bite that mimics a hybrid between a fast crash and a Chinese cymbal.<!--TgQPHd|||[]--><!--TgQPHd|||[]-->

• Ultra-Fast Decay:<!--TgQPHd|||[]--> Because of the reduced mass, the cymbal speaks the instant it is struck and dies away rapidly, ensuring it never overpowers the mix.<!--TgQPHd|||[]--><!--TgQPHd|||[]-->

- Bright with Dark Undertones:<!--TgQPHd|||[]--> It yields a high-pitched, cutting attack but settles into a darker, white-noise wash as the sound decays.<!--TgQPHd|||[]--><!--TgQPHd|||[]-->

Versatility in Setups<!--TgQPHd|||[]-->

• Quick Accents:<!--TgQPHd|||[]--> Perfect for sharp, punctuation-style hits during fast fills or syncopated musical passages.<!--TgQPHd|||[]--><!--TgQPHd|||[]-->

- Stacking Element:<!--TgQPHd|||[]--> Highly popular among drummers for stacking directly on top of or underneath larger crashes or chinas to create tight, crunchy auxiliary hi-hat or percussion effects.<!--TgQPHd|||[]--><!--TgQPHd|||[]-->
