SABIAN 13" Paragon Hat Bottom Brilliant Finish
The SABIAN 13" Paragon bottom cymbal delivers fast, crisp responses with clean, bright sticking that cuts through at any dynamic level. Handcrafted from pure B20 bronze and finished in brilliant lacquer, these medium-weight hats were designed in collaboration with legendary RUSH drummer Neil Peart to balance power with musical sensitivity. The combination of AA-style hammering and hybrid sound-design features creates a cymbal that responds instantly to technique while maintaining definition across genres.

Fast, crisp response paired with medium-weight construction (bottom: 1138g) makes these hats ideal for players seeking articulate separation and dynamic range without sacrificing projection.
