Sabian's Description: <<< - >>>
Review: "The 16in and 18in crashes are ideally suited to wake the dead (those on the guest list), and make mincemeat of those bits at the end of the song where you beat seven bells out of the cymbals and bass drum waiting for the guitarist to finish showing off. Each cymbal has plenty of decay but also an inevitable bonk as the stick strikes. You can't make cymbals this thick without paying some sort of sonic price."

Review written by Andy Duncan ("Sabian Leopard Cymbals", Making Music, August 1986)

Review: "Leopard crash cymbals are also very loud but they're deeper-toned than usual. This means that they wouldn't be quite so audible in the band. However, you do know when you've hit them!"

Review written by Bob Henrit ("Sabian Leopards - Cymbalcheck", International Musician & Recording World, August 1986)
