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.
With the Vintage Dark tone of the HH a popular choice for Jazz, Rock, the Blues and beyond, the most popular models are those that offer the most versatility. HH is a traditional concept, so tradition, not innovation is what makes this such a popular choice. These models highlight the sounds that drummers around the world have made their favourite.
''Traditional Turkish hand hammering is more than just our history,'' explained Sabian Master Sound Specialist Mark Love, ''It's our DNA. We've been using traditional hand hammering techniques since day one.
