The medium bell provides a focused ping perfect for accenting grooves. The XSR Ride is a smartly-priced cymbal with professional-level tone.

Innovative Hammering Enhances Tonal Control

The XSR Ride features innovative hammering that enhances resonance while allowing drummers pinpoint tonal control. Sabian's master cymbalsmiths carefully hammer the cymbal from edge to edge, creating slight grooves and an uneven surface. This allows the cymbal to vibrate freely, producing a complex wash, while also giving drummers the ability to elicit a clear ping by striking the cymbal at different points. The XSR Ride's versatile sound is ideal for any style or volume.

Mid-Sized Bell Cuts Through the Mix

The XSR Ride has a medium bell that provides focused accents that cut through the mix. At 5" in diameter, the bell is large enough to produce a clear ping but small enough to avoid overpowering. Drummers can ride on the bow for a wash and crash on the edge for volume, then move to the bell for articulation. The bell's distinct tone allows drummers to accent grooves and solos without losing definition.

Professional Quality at an Affordable Price

While affordably priced, the XSR Ride offers professional-level quality in tone and construction. Sabian crafts each XSR cymbal from B20 bronze, a proprietary alloy renowned for its musicality and durability. Sabian's state-of-the-art manufacturing processes and exacting quality standards ensure that every XSR Ride has a rich, balanced voice. Drummers can achieve a world-class sound without breaking the bank.
