Sabian XS20 Rock piatto ride 20''

Descrizione

Over the last few decades, Sabian has come to be a major force in the cymbal making industry. The company - that was founded by Robert Zildjian in 1981 - belongs to the 'big four' manufacturers of cymbals, along with Zildjian, Paiste and Meinl. All four companies create very high-quality cymbals, but Sabian stands out because it pours just as much effort into its budget-friendly cymbals as it does into its expensive, high-end series.

Sabian XS20 20-inch Rock Ride: high-quality B20 bronze

The XS20 series is quite special, as it is a budget-friendly series of cymbals that is made of the same high-quality alloy of B20 bronze as Sabian's high-end cymbals. By using a more automated production process, however, Sabian has been able to keep costs at a minimum, making these cymbals not only very high in quality, but also very affordable.

The 20-inch XS20 Rock Ride is a heavy ride cymbal made of B20 bronze, that is excellently suited for louder genres, as its name implies. It has excellent stick definition and a slight wash, and it has a powerful, cutting bell sound. While a heavy ride like this one is not ideal for crashing (though that is, of course, mainly a matter of personal preference) note that if you do decide to crash this ride, you should be prepared for some serious volume.
