Sabian 22″ HH Thin Crash Cymbal
The Sabian 22″ HH Thin Crash delivers a quick, articulate response with a distinctly dark and warm character. This cymbal excels in recording and mixing scenarios where clarity and definition are essential without excessive wash, making it a versatile choice for tracking across multiple genres and dynamic contexts.
Sound Character & Tone
Built from B20 Bronze Alloy, this crash produces a low and dark warm tone with excellent definition and quick attack. The rapid decay keeps the cymbal from washing out in the mix, allowing articulate strokes to cut through even in dense arrangements and allowing for controlled layering of additional elements.
Design & Construction
The low profile design and medium (M-size) bell create a compact, responsive playing surface that translates well in the studio environment. Enhanced hammering throughout the cymbal—a hallmark of the HH Remastered series—adds tonal complexity and harmonic character while maintaining controlled, usable sustain that doesn’t dominate a mix.
