This Sabian is damn near impossible to find. And it’s $360 new - I’m not kidding. Sabian raised their prices extensively, especially on the HH series.
-
And I don’t even think you can get these anymore. And this one you can actually hear before you buy so you can buy with confidence. It was hand picked.
Have a listen. This 16” bends with ease! One of the thinnest modern 16” Crashes.
-
Ultra MELLOW, warm and smooth! That’s this gorgeous Vanguard.
- This Hand Hammered dark leaning HH Vanguard is the perfect blend of Dark and Warm and extremely responsive.
- It is not even designated a Crash - it has a Multi Application Cymbal vibe. It’s a magnificent suspended cymbal and it’s so dark and low pitched it can be used as a Light Ride.
- And it’s controlled with a Mini Bell! But also has bendable edges. That’s kind of the genius.
-
Here is how Sabian describes this hard to find 16”:
“A thin, light design with pinpoint lathing and smaller bell, HH Vanguard is ideal for players who want darker cymbals with quick responses.
The smaller cup and extended profile delivers clean, woody stick definition for such a thin cymbal."
- And they are right, the attack is very solid for a 16” gram 16”. But it’s still mellow overall.
- The tone is an amazing mix of smooth and complex It’s Hand Hammered but not overly harsh. It remains lush and has a mellowness to it.
-
And at such a thin gram weight even a brush stroke sets it off a-rumblin.
-
Stunning mellow Light Left Side Ride for quieter settings. Very responsive and opens quickly but remains controlled.
- Great Fast Crash.
- One of the nicest Sabian Cymbals you will find - or actually not find. I bet Sabian only makes a handful of these a year.
- No issues. Extremely clean. Very hard to find especially without the guest of staring at a stock photo.
