Sabian 17" HH Medium-Thin Crash Cymbal

The Sabian 17" HH Medium-Thin Crash delivers immediate responsiveness beneath the stick with minimal effort required to achieve articulate articulation. This hand-hammered cymbal cuts through a mix with authority while maintaining a musical character that works across rock, fusion, and contemporary styles. The medium-thin weight classification positions it as a versatile crash capable of both sharp definition and controlled sustain.

Tone & Acoustic Character

This cymbal produces a low, dark and warm tone with rapid decay, making it ideal for situations where you need defined attack without excessive wash. The explosive response with moderate sustain means the cymbal speaks immediately on impact and settles quickly, giving you precise control over dynamic articulation in both live and recorded contexts.

Construction & Design

Built using hand-hammered construction, each cymbal receives individual shaping that contributes to its organic sonic character and visual distinction. The traditional hand-hammered finish reflects both the craftsmanship involved and the authentic tonal properties that result from this labor-intensive manufacturing method.
