This pre-owned Sabian HHX Legacy 18" Crash Cymbal is in excellent overall condition and offers the dark, expressive sound that the HHX Legacy range is known for. Developed with Dave Weckl, the Legacy Crash sits on the darker side of Sabian’s HHX line, giving players a crash that is musical, complex and responsive across a wide dynamic range.
With its thin weight, B20 bronze construction and HHX hammering, this 18" crash opens quickly with a warm, dark shimmer and a slightly trashy edge. It works especially well for jazz, fusion, gospel, worship, funk, studio work and any setup where you want a more expressive crash cymbal rather than something overly bright or harsh.
This is a very clean pre-owned example, with only a couple of fingerprint marks and very light signs of use.

Why Choose This Cymbal?
The Sabian HHX Legacy 18" Crash is a strong choice for drummers who want a crash cymbal with warmth, control and musical character. It responds quickly under the stick, making it easy to use for softer playing, while still offering enough spread and body for bigger accents.
Compared with brighter crash cymbals, the HHX Legacy has a darker and more complex voice. That makes it particularly useful for players who need a cymbal that blends well in a mix, records nicely in the studio and adds texture without becoming too sharp or piercing.
The 18" size gives a good balance of fast response and fuller crash sound, making it versatile enough for a wide range of playing styles.
