SABIAN 15" Paragon Hat Top

SABIAN 15" Paragon Hat Top

The Paragon Hat Top delivers fast, crisp responses with clean, well-defined sticking characteristic of a medium-weight hi-hat cymbal. Handcrafted from pure B20 bronze using AA-style hammering, this cymbal was designed in collaboration with legendary RUSH drummer Neil Peart to commemorate the band's 40th anniversary and the R40 tour. The Paragon series bridges power and musicality, offering dynamic responsiveness suitable for a wide range of playing styles and applications.

Tone & Character

The bright, articulate sound profile ensures clean articulation and cutting definition through a mix of cymbal. The medium weight classification provides fast response times without sacrificing durability or projection, making these hats effective in both studio and live environments where precision and clarity matter.
