SABIAN 13" Paragon Hat Bottom

SABIAN 13" Paragon Hat Bottom

The SABIAN 13" Paragon Hat Bottom delivers fast, crisp responses with snappy articulation and clean, well-defined stick attack—a heavy bottom cymbal engineered for controlled, punchy hi-hat voices that cut through dense mixes. This handcrafted B20 bronze cymbal pairs effectively with medium tops to create articulate, projection-focused hi-hat setups where definition matters as much as control. Built for drummers who demand precision and consistency in their cymbal voices, it combines the best design elements from SABIAN's AA, AAX, and HH series into a hybrid sonic signature.

Tone & Sonic Character

The AA-style hammering pattern combined with hybrid design features creates a bright, articulate voice without excessive wash. The brilliant finish treatment helps tame high overtones and prevent harsh frequencies while preserving natural B20 clarity and responsiveness, ensuring clean definition during fast playing and complex cymbal patterns.

Construction & Design

Meticulous handcrafting ensures consistent quality and authentic Sabian voice across each playing surface, while the heavy bottom weight classification provides substantial mass for control and projection. This cymbal's construction prioritizes articulation and cut in tight hi-hat setups where fast response and stick definition are essential.
