Sabian's Description: <<< - >>>
Review: "If one were to be asked what is the most often used crash cymbal model, regardless of the brand, it would probably be the Medium Crash. Sabian has some in their AA line, and the 18″ is reviewed here. They also have them in the HH line, which have a darker sound. The AA’s are at the bright end of the scale.
The cymbal is lightly hammered, but deeply lathed, and the lathe lines are widely spaced. The bell is also lathed."
