Sabian XSR 17" Fast Crash
The XSR 17" Fast Crash combines the snappy, immediate response of a thin crash with genuine medium-weight power—a rare balance that keeps the cymbal articulate and cutting without sacrificing projection. Sabian engineered this cymbal using proven technology filtered down from their award-winning Evolution and X-Plosion lines, delivering professional-grade voice and responsiveness at a price that respects your budget without compromise.
Design & Construction
Built from B20 Bronze with a hammered and enhanced profile featuring a re-shaped bell, this crash produces a fast, defined attack ideal across musical styles. The medium weight of approximately 1076g (range: 1001g–1225g) strikes the critical balance between the speed of a thin model and the durability and power needed for sustained stage use.
Sound & Performance Character
The Fast Crash delivers immediate response and articulation without sacrificing projection or body, making it equally effective in tight jazz contexts and louder rock or fusion settings. The re-shaped bell contributes definition to the initial strike while the hammered surface provides the tonal complexity expected from genuine B20 bronze construction.
