Sabian 20" Medium Ride AAX

The Sabian 20" Medium Ride AAX is engineered for clarity and stick articulation in contemporary playing contexts. This bright, cutting ride cuts through a full kit mix without excessive wash, making it an ideal choice for studio work and live settings where projection and definition are non-negotiable. Built on decades of cymbal innovation, the AAX delivers the modern sonic character players expect from professional-grade hardware.

Sound & Playability

Constructed from B20 Bronze—a copper, tin, and silver alloy—this ride produces a bright sound profile with articulate stick definition. The smaller, raw bell design contributes to focused tonality, while the larger-rounder hammer peen with thinner weight application creates a responsive playing surface that rewards controlled technique and translates nuance directly into the final sound.

Construction & Durability

Medium weight classification balances durability with playability, making this cymbal equally suited to demanding studio sessions and touring situations. The modern styling and raw bell finishing reflect current design trends that prioritize clarity without sacrificing the structural integrity needed for professional use.
