Description

Here’s what Sabian say about the B8X 18″ Ballistic Crash Cymbal

Utilizing a completely new hammer peen and hammering technique, the 18″ B8X Ballistic Crash is a thin model that delivers funky, aggressive attack, fully capable of creating high-pitched mayhem while remaining musical.

Not unlike a higher pitched HHX X-Treme Crash, the extra-larrge hammering pattern from the bottom creates a flexible cymbal that is more responsive and opens up quickly and easily. It also results in a pitch bend that is shaped upward, making for a trashy crash that is more than happy to go fully ballistic!

Features

  • A responsive thin model that opens up quickly and easily
  • Utilizing new hammer peen and technique for aggressive, high-pitched sound
  • A trashy crash that is more than happy to go ballistic! 
  • Protected by SABIAN Two-Year Warranty

Sabian

Sabian is one of the world’s leading cymbal manufacturers, known for combining traditional craftsmanship with modern innovation. Founded in 1981 by Robert Zildjian after the famous split in the Zildjian family, Sabian quickly established itself as a major force in cymbal design. Based in Canada, the brand built its reputation by working closely with drummers and constantly evolving its sound, rather than sticking rigidly to tradition.

Sabian cymbals are known for their versatility, offering everything from bright, cutting models for rock and metal to darker, more complex tones suited to jazz and studio work. Popular ranges include AA, AAX, HH, and HHX, each designed to deliver different tonal characteristics, from modern projection to vintage warmth. Sabian also produces a wide variety of effects cymbals, splash cymbals, chinas, and stacks, allowing drummers to expand their sound and create unique textures.

What Sabian does particularly well is giving drummers choice and control. Their cymbals respond consistently, project clearly, and sit well in a mix, whether live or in the studio. For drummers looking to shape their own sound with a wide palette of tones and modern design, Sabian remains one of the most flexible and forward-thinking cymbal brands available.
