As you grow more confident and comfortable in the drummer’s chair, you’ll probably want to experiment and begin adding a little something extra and unexpected to your sound. For that, you’ll want a good quality accent cymbal. Like Sabian’s extra thin and extremely fast acting B8 Splash in three sizes.
It’s expertly designed and precision crafted for impact and produces crisp, splashy accents that only last for a short duration for increased effect. You can play it upright or invert it to make the pitch go higher.
The master craftsman at Sabian build upon the cymbal making traditions of those before them to create modern cymbals that are innovative and interesting. The B8 bronze alloy is fully hammered and totally lathed to ensure quality, consistency and reliability as you play.
The natural finish also affects the sound and it is the drummer’s choice when tone and an extra touch of “bite” are desired. The list of well-known drummers who endorse Sabian cymbals reads like a who’s who of the music world…Xavier Muriel of Buckcherry, Todd Sucherman of Styx, Keith Harris of Black-Eyed Peas and Rich Beddoe of Finger Eleven. All are proud to say, “We play Sabian.”
