Introduction: 1997
Background: Developed in collaboration between Sabian and Terry Bozzio.
Innovation: Hand-hammered cymbals with unique sound and appearance
Alloy: B20
Quality: Professional
Production: The cymbals are individually hand-hammered for tonal complexity and increased musical value, with their surface scored (in gong fashion) to create an "ancient oriental" appearance.
Applications: All volume settings • Live playing and recording • Entire range of music styles
Users: Terry Bozzio
Sound: Somewhat dry, dark, and exotic, with a quick sustain
NOTE: Radia did not have the model marked on the cymbals. It was only after some were integrated into the HH series that the cymbals' model names were added.
