- Here’s one you never see! And it sounds absolutely incredible - one of my favorite cymbals we recorded because there’s nothing like it.
- Very Jack DeJohnette vibe.
- This Sabian was exceptionally rare even when it was being produced! It’s nearly 40 years old.
- And check out the craftsmanship on this Rare HH! I’ve only seen one or two of these in my life. The 22s” are damn hard to find.
- This is the insanely rare 18”! And it’s a Sizzle. And that’s perfect! Because it’s heavy and raw and Hand Hammered.
- Weighing in at a lovely 1844 grams this Leopard Crash plays like a great DRY and CONTROLLED 18" with a hint of complexity.
- What I dig about this specific cymbal is that it is slightly dark and organic sounding (compliments of the raw finish) while STILL possessing the drier tone and strong stick articulation of the Leopard Style unlathed craftsmanship.
- As a crash this 18" has a great focused, slightly dry wash, and its medium weight adds some nice projection. It cuts. Very, very well.
- The Hand Hammered bell is rounded over and very solid! It projects superbly - especially for an 18”.
- As a ride, this Leopard plays like a great DRY LIGHT RIDE that’s controlled and focused. The decay is quick. It’s a rare combination to find on a cymbal.
- Very fast and responsive with the light vintage vibe of all 8 rivets.
- This is a great cymbal for medium low to loud settings. Can cover a lot of dynamic ranges.
- Smaller Main Dry Ride. Left Side Crash Ride. Heavy Dry Crash Sizzle.
- And it’s impossible to find! Great shape. No issues. Strong logos. A unique addition to any setup and a hell of a lot of fun to explore.
