Key Features
If you like darker cymbals with a quick response, look no further. The Sabian HH 18’’ Vanguard Crash Cymbal is a thin weight cymbal with pinpoint lathing, which develops clean stick definition. The B20 bronze construction provides a dark tone and a quick response, allowing you to play as vigorously as you like. The Sabian HH 18’’ Vanguard Crash Cymbals are hand-hammed which create a vintage and already played in feel, alongside a dark, vintage sound. All of the Sabian HH cymbals are individually crafted meaning they are all unique and slightly different from one another.

When Sabian was first launched in 1982, Hand Hammered (HH) cymbals were the first products they manufactured - and these were the cymbals that made drummers all over the world fall in love with Sabian. Now, Sabian have remastered these original cymbals to produce models with added complexity and tone, delivering unmatched sonic texture across the entire line. Depending on the size and model, each remastered HH cymbal is hand hammered up to 3,000 times - in some cases more.
Sabians HH cymbals are hand-hammered into shape to achieve the perfect Sabian sound. Each cymbal receives between 2,000 and 4,000 hammer blows, which results in an increase in musicality, tonal complexity and unmatched sonic texture. The HH cymbals are renowned for their dark sound, which is achieved for hammering the B20 metal design cymbal into perfect standard. These vintage style cymbals are extremely popular and praised by many musical greats.
