Sabian A2006 Artisan 20" Crash Cymbal

Full-Bodied Crash with Deep, Expressive Wash

The Sabian Artisan 20 inch Crash delivers a rich, full voice with dark tonal warmth and a textured decay that unfolds naturally. Crafted from hand-hammered B20 alloy, it opens with a controlled initial burst before blooming into a deep, musical wash that fills space without becoming overpowering. Its size gives it longer sustain and broader dynamic reach, making it ideal for expressive swells, accent crashes and lush layering in acoustic, jazz, world or studio settings. Despite its depth, it remains responsive at softer dynamics, allowing players to shape tone with touch and nuance rather than force.

At Riffs & Licks Music, we think this crash suits drummers seeking a warm, mature and musically rich crash voice with expressive sustain.
