Sabian - 21985XB AAX 19" X-Plosion Fast Crash

The Sabian AAX X-Plosion Fast cymbal features an extremely fast and bright response. You'll immediately feel the lively strike of an extra-thin crash, cut out for dry, explosive accents. The 19" diameter provides appreciable fullness without any loss of speed. The high-gloss finish enhances the model's projection and natural clarity. The hammering contributes to its brilliant, incisive character.

You'll also benefit from a high bell that reinforces the attack and accentuates the percussive side. The B20 material contributes to the modern, powerful tone typical of the AAX series. Thanks to the Dynamic Focus design, you can maintain a stable, controlled response, even when you change dynamics. You can play softly or loudly while maintaining precision and clarity.

This crash is designed for situations where you need to break through the mix without forcing it. You'll feel a pleasant balance between brilliance, speed and power. The model reacts immediately under the stick, without dragging or saturating. You'll enjoy a short-to-medium sustain, perfect for fast phrases. This character makes it at home in pop, rock, fusion or modern metal registers.
