Designed with RUSH drummer Neil Peart, the Sabian 8" Paragon Splash is a small, thin model with fast, punchy responses and plenty of high-end cutting power. Glassy sounding, it's direct and surprisingly powerful. As you would expect, the Paragon Splash works great in a rock setting, yet offers a versatility and flexibility suitable for a wide range of applications. Handcrafted from pure Sabian B20 bronze, Paragon cymbals offer subtle looks and powerful, dynamic sounds. Created using AA-style hammering and an innovative mix of sound-defining features from the AA, AAX, and HH series, Paragon defines a new, closer relationship between power and musicality in cymbals that are dynamically responsive, highly durable, and effective in a wide range of applications.
