  • Here’s one of the finest sounding dark thin crashes you will encounter - the edges bend with ease! And these cost $400 new. And that $400 gets you a GUESS at what it sounds like! 

  • But you need not suffer that! Thats awful. And so we don’t live it here chez hazelshould! Listen away so that you can buy with confidence.
  • As many of you may know, the HHX Complex Series is Sabian's newest offerings. 

  • This 17” is in great shape and sounds phenomenal! Very, very clean and it was hand selected. And you can tell. 

  • FLAGSHIP Sabian HHX 17” Complex THIN CRASH. 

  • Sabian describes this cymbal as:
    “A blend of light and dark, focus and spread, the wafer-slim Complex Thin Crash is one of Sabian's sweetest offerings to date. This crash marries HH and HHX hammering techniques with a raw hand-hammered bell to deliver a buttery stick response, an earthy ping, and a glassy-hot wash with self-balancing control.”

  • That is SEXY as HELL!

  • Weighing in at a lovely and indeed thin 1088 grams this 17” plays like a great THIN COMPLEX CRASH. Imagine that!

  • Easily bendable. Opens very quickly. Dark. Fast. 
  • The RAW bell is stunningly hand hammered and gorgeous. It’s a testament to the design and craftsmanship that went into this 17”. It’s Sabian’s flagship series and it shows.  This is the revamped HHX. And the Raw Bell provides a bit more projection which is a great thing on a paper thin cymbal.  

  • LOW and Dark. Glowing. Fantastic broad spread - complex with subtle overtones swimming about, penetrating attack with a fairly quick decay. 

  • If you have a light touch, you can use this 17” as a very mellow, Thin Complex Ride or Crash Ride. 

  • Responsive at lower volumes and quite capable at medium loud settings.  Terrific dynamic range.  

  • No issues. Light use. Terrific shape.  Perfect logos.  A beauty! 

  • Hardly anyone has a 17” that you can actually HEAR! Don’t waste your time on a stock photo and a guess.
