SABIAN

Description

Bursting with energy, the innovative SABIAN AAX X-Plosion Pack explodes into your setup. The crashes (16" and free 18") offer bright, full and punchy attack to cut through any live mix. The 21" AAX X-Plosion ride is a unique size and an exceptionally crashable light ride to round out SABIAN's award-winning AAX X-Plosion family. A large raw bell boosts the crash-ability factor, and combined with their X-Plosion sustain-enhancing process, adds up to a cymbal that's equally at home performing light ride or heavy crash duty.

Add to the mix the free 18" crash, and this is a must-have setup.

Outstanding cymbals

I've been playing the drums for years and decided it was time for some new cymbals. I went into the store and listened to a number of cymbals before deciding on this set. After playing them I couldn't be happier with the response, sound and the clarity of these cymbals. I also wanted to add the harder you hit them the better they sound. Ideal for all situations.

    I recently purchased a set of AAX cymbals and couldn't be happier with it. The sound quality is fantastic, and they are perfect for the music that I play. Overall, I would highly recommend these cymbals to any musician looking for a great sound and quality product.

    Great sound at low and high volumes. They were on sale and I got 0% financing,so GC made this an easy decision . My old cymbals are dark. ,so it's nice to have something different and still very versatile

    Guitar Center had a great sale, so I decided go with the AAX pack over the Zildjian A-custom pack. Was a little nervous until I started playing, & they sound great. Clear, cutting sound with a long fade, yet very distinctive from the A-customs. Would recommend if looking for something different

  • Yep.
