Sabian XS20 Suspended Cymbal
Major Breakthrough with case bronze cymbals selling at sheet bronze prices
In a bold move, SABIAN has introduced XS20, a new series of high quality B20 "cast" bronze cymbals at low, "sheet" bronze prices! Designed for the entry-level/student player, XS20 is crafted using SABIAN's highly durable premium B20 bronze alloy and the cost-saving efficiencies of innovative new technology. Developed over 10 years of experimentation, XS20 is cited by the award-winning cymbal company as a major breakthrough in the production and pricing of quality B20 bronze cymbals and will introduce an influential new dynamic into the important budget-priced cymbal market.
Designed for today's market
"XS20," commented SABIAN president Dan Barker, "is all about great value. It's performance without the price. Designed for today's market, it has all the qualities associated with SABIAN B20 bronze cymbals and offers a great opportunity for dealers and consumers to get in on a high-quality product, the likes of which has never before been seen at this price. In fact it may be considered as too good for its price. But while price is a key point in the appeal of XS20, I do stress that the value of this cymbal is a combination of price and quality. XS20 is excellent in terms of sound and looks, but the fact that it is made from our premium B20 bronze, manufactured to high SABIAN standards, and backed by Sabian's One-Year Warranty confirms that value, regardless of price. We've utilized innovative proprietary technology to keep XS20 prices down without sacrificing quality. As a result we feel XS20 is a very attractive option for budget-conscious players seeking high-quality, professional-style cymbals at surprisingly low prices."
Intelligent buy
Available exclusively in Natural Finish, XS20 is line-lathed top and bottom, for sounds that are pitched on the bright side of mid, relatively open and free. Concluded Barker: "With the durability and great sound of B20 bronze plus such a low price point, XS20 is an excellent cymbal and an intelligent buy. The market has been waiting for just such a value product, and we are confident XS20 will more than meet expectations."
