SABIAN 15" Paragon Hat Bottom

SABIAN 15" Paragon Hat Bottom

Designed in collaboration with legendary RUSH drummer Neil Peart, the Paragon Hat Bottom delivers fast, crisp responses with clean, well-defined stick articulation. This medium-weight cymbal pairs exceptional dynamics with musicality, responding immediately to nuanced playing while maintaining projection across a wide range of volumes and playing styles.

Sound & Tone Character

The bright sonic profile cuts through the mix with clarity and definition. Built using AA-style hammering combined with sound-defining features drawn from the AA, AAX, and HH series, these hats achieve a refined balance between power and articulation that works effectively in rock contexts and beyond.

Construction & Materials

Handcrafted from pure SABIAN B20 bronze alloy, the Paragon series represents an innovative approach to cymbal design that prioritizes both durability and dynamic response. The medium weight enables fast response without sacrificing the sustain and projection needed in live and studio environments.
