Splash Cymbal
Designed for those who demand an uncompromising percussive cymbal, the Sabian 7" MAXX Splash V2 stands out with a subtle balance between power and finesse. The result of a close collaboration with Mike Portnoy, this new version celebrates a quarter century of innovation by revisiting the characteristics of the famous Max Splashes. With a more imposing bell and a redesigned shape, it offers increased projection and generous volume, without a dominant fundamental note constraining the expressiveness of the playing.

A cymbal designed to precisely meet the expectations of drummers looking for an expressive and well-defined sound impact.
