Responding to the universal demand for quality cymbals at all price points, Sabian introduced SBr, a new series of brass cymbals designed to offer improved quality and value for the entry level drummer. Produced from a special-formula brass alloy at the Sabian plant in Canada, the budget-priced SBr is available in a full range of popular sizes and models, each featuring deep, large-peen hammering and pinpoint lathing. SBr is available exclusively in Natural Finish. The were launched at the Winter NAMM Show 2010, Anaheim, and shortly after also introduced to the European market at Musikmesse Frankfurt 2010, Germany.
Said Sabian Master Product Specialist Mark Love, “SBr offers a new, higher quality of brass cymbal and sound for the entry level drummer. Despite its budget price, this series has been designed as a value-added cymbal that sets a new standard for quality at this price point in the brass category. To ensure this level of quality, SBr features the same hand-guided, high-pressure hammering and traditional hand lathing applied to more expensive professional cymbals.”
The SBr series includes hi-hats, splashes, crashes, and rides. Also available are ‘Sonically Matched’ pre-packs including the Performance Set (14” hi-hats, 16” crash, 20” ride), the First Pack (13” hi-hats, 16” crash), and the 2-Pack (14” hi-hats, 18” crash ride). |
