Typical New Price: $399.99
Unplayed – opened only to take photos
Up for sale is an unplayed Sabian HHX Complex 16" Thin Crash (Model 11606XCN). It was only opened for photography and has never been played. This crash represents the latest evolution in Sabian’s hand-hammered B20 bronze lineup—designed for players who demand rich tone, dynamic response, and sonic sophistication.
Specifications
Size: 16"
Weight: Thin
Series: HHX Complex
Material: B20 bronze alloy
Model ID: 11606XCN
Finish: Traditional
Made in: Canada
Sound Profile
Tone: Dark and complex, with a warm and musical wash
Attack: Fast and smooth—responds immediately to even light touch
Sustain: Quick decay with natural fade; doesn’t overstay its welcome
Feel: Silky under the stick, ideal for expressive accents and fast crashes
Projection: Balanced—sits well in both close-mic’d studio and open live environments
Sabian’s HHX Complex series is handcrafted using a fusion of traditional HH and HHX hammering, giving each cymbal nuanced character and modern edge. This 16" version provides the perfect blend of quick response and dark shimmer—ideal for layering into any professional setup.
Genre Star Ratings (with Descriptions)
Jazz: 5/5 – Subtle, fast, and warm with a perfect decay
Fusion: 5/5 – Crisp enough to cut, dark enough to blend
Studio/Session: 5/5 – Mix-ready tone right out of the box
Pop: 4/5 – Warm tone that supports rather than overwhelms
Funk: 4/5 – Fast attack and tight decay fit tight grooves
Gospel: 4/5 – Lush and expressive for musical accents
Rock: 3/5 – Sounds great in small to mid-volume settings; may lack punch for hard rock
Metal: 2/5 – Not built for extreme volume; more musical than aggressive
Nick’s Notes
This crash is incredibly expressive. It’s one of those cymbals that feels alive under the stick—fast, dark, and lush without being overbearing. It’s a phenomenal piece for players who need texture without clutter. Ours is unplayed and ready for a serious player who knows how to make tone work.
