Sabian

The second largest maker of cymbals, after Zildjian. Sabian has 7 lines of cymbals:

• B8
• B8 Pro
• Pro
• AA
• AAX
• Signature
• HH (hand hammered)

Some of the drummers endorsed by Sabian include Mike Portnoy, Rod Morgenstein, and Terry Bozzio.

I just have to add this: Sabian got it's name from?




Time's up! The children of the founder are named Sally, Billy and Andy.

I always enjoyed a new Sabian over a new Zildjian or Paiste. No one can beat an old old Zildjian, but for everything else, there's Sabian.
