Sabian 14" AA Rock Hats

Sabian 14" AA Rock Hats

These hats deliver powerful, penetrating cut through dense mixes and loud ensemble settings. The heavy top and bottom construction provides the durability to withstand relentless stick work in hard rock, funk, and blues contexts. Built on decades of AA series tradition, they produce the bright, explosive energy that defined classic rock cymbal tones.

Tone & Character

The B20 bronze composition yields a bright, vintage sound with articulate stick definition and projection. This tonal profile cuts cleanly in loud musical situations without sacrificing the classic character that made the AA series a studio and stage standard since 1982.

Construction & Durability

Weighing 1248g on the top and 1431g on the bottom, these are built heavy to absorb and respond to aggressive playing dynamics. The substantial mass ensures consistent response across a wide dynamic range and resists warping under the demands of high-volume playing.
