Title: ::: Sabian rocks :::
Post by: j_kay on July 19, 2006, 04:36:58 PM: Hey, guys - I sent two cracked cymbals, one 10" HHX Evolution Splash and a 17" AAXPlosion Crash, but I had forgotten to include a receipt with the package (which is required to process a warranty claim). On today, 7.19.06, I received a replacement splash and the crash is on backorder.

;D SABIAN ROCKS!!! ;D

Here are a few photos of my replacement splash (by the way, I requested a 10" Hand Hammered Splash in brilliant finish)

I love them - they are a really nice mellow sounding line. They are extremely musical in the sense of blend and balance.

They are also an underused line because of the price point - you've gotta pay to play, baby! They aren't at an AA or AAX price point.

If you can, get them. ;D

Yeah, they are some nice plates. I would suggest to hear the HHs first, since they vary in tonal structure. I got lucky when I ordered my set (16" and 18" HH Dark Crashes, 21" HH Raw Bell Dry Ride) some time ago. The others I ordered online, but I'm speaking mainly about the HHs. ;D

Thank you.

I'm glad that they did that, also. I know that they could have just denied my (warranty) claim, but they didn't. I really appreciate them for that.

SABIAN rocks! ;D
