Description

AA

  • 8-sided crash/effects model responds with raw, chinese-inflected crash sounds.1
  • 8-sided crash/effects model responds with raw, chinese-inflected splash sounds. (for 6" - 10" sizes) 1

AAX

  • The 18” AAX Rocktagon has the same 8-sided shape as its predecessor from the 80’s, but that’s where the similarity ends. This version is a thin crash weight with a raw un-hammered bell and pinpoint lathing that combine with the 8-sided shape to produce an immediate nasty crash with quick decay. The thicker raw bell also allows for strong bell accents and added punch. An excellent effects cymbal with an unusual look and sound.
  • This was originally a Vault Drop cymbal but you loved it so much, we’ve brought it back as a full-time member of the catalog.
  • Iconic 80’s shape
  • Thin crash weight
  • Immediate sound with quick decay
  • Great for strong bell accents2
