B20 By Sabian

Introduction: 1983
Discontinued: Late 1984
Background: This series contained less silver than Sabian's other B20 lines, in order to sell at a cheaper price point. (Actually no silver was used). This was Sabian's first attempt at a budget-minded B20 alloy series. Twenty years would pass before trying again, with the XS20 line.
Alloy: B20
Quality: Entry to mid-level
Production: Produced by Tosco in Italy. Liquid bronze was poured into molds. Once dry, a mounting hole was drilled, the cymbals were lathed, and then edged. The cymbals suffered from premature breakage, lending to its short lifespan.
