Sabian China 08" AA Mini Holy China

Designed with Chad Smith, this Chinese has all the volume, 'trash' and the cut of the Holy China. With its exaggerated high profile, a row of holes and its cowbell without polishing, the 8" AA Mini Holy China cuts better than any other cymbal of its size. This special design offers the type of white noise that is associated with cymbals bigger. This is because more 'trash' equals less tonality character, and there is more white noise in the sound of the cymbal, resulting in a more intense cut. Think this one cymbal is a mini-monster volume and cut.

Bright, powerful and explosive sounds. They combine musicality and energy in some cymbals highly durable that fit in any musical style.
The traditional concentric turning technique with a smaller pattern and a lower profile, applied by the craftsmen Vault de Sabian (some of which have more than a million cymbals turned by hand) is one of the factors that contribute to the open and vintage tone of cymbals AA.
