Introducing the Sabian 19" HHX Legacy Crash Cymbal, a perfect blend of rich resonance and musical complexity. This cymbal, part of the Dave Weckl Signature Series, is a testament to the art of hand-hammering. It offers a unique tone texture, delivering a broad tonal spectrum that delves deep into the darker side of sound. The HHX Legacy Crash is not just punchy, it's complex, serving up a semi-dry stick sound and a responsive tone that musicians will appreciate.

Crafted from the fusion of 80% copper and 20% tin, the B20 bronze alloy used in its creation is renowned for its bell tones, wide-ranging voice, and dark, simmering sound. It's a challenging alloy to work with, but the results are worth it, producing cymbals with the widest frequency range. The cymbal's tone is dark yet fat in the attack, capable of cutting through the mix without overwhelming it. It's a crash that goes straight to the heart of your sound, revealing its musical soul without obscuring any element in its path.

The Sabian 19" HHX Legacy Crash Cymbal stands out as a darker, deeper contrast to the Evolution Series, providing a unique sound profile that's trashy, vibrant, and beautiful all at once.
