With its band of proprietary brushed finish, the Freq crash stands out visually and its performance is similarly attention- grabbing.

Sabian's Description: <<< - >>>
Review: "The 18" Freq crash alludes to both 'freak' and 'frequency' in its name and has a band of unusual, roughly-brushed finish between its well-defined raw bell and lathed bow.
With its band of proprietary brushed finish, the Freq crash stands out visually and its performance is similarly attention- grabbing. There is a lot of warmth in its note and a fair pinch of dryness too, but it cuts through all the same. A strong bell response completes the package. If I had to sum it up in one word it would be 'meaty'."
