The SABIAN Experience returns to the UK Drum Show with more than 80 cymbals ready to play, compare and explore.

This is your chance to get hands-on with some of SABIAN’s newest and most talked-about cymbals, including the STRATUS Dry collection, the 21″ AA MantaRay Chinese, 21″ AAX Power Bell Ride and 22″ HHX Sonic Surge.

You’ll also be able to hear our latest generation of rides, including the BFM World Ride, HHX Max Ride and Todd Sucherman’s HH Sessions Ride – alongside a huge selection of crashes, hats, effects and other models from across the SABIAN range.

Our SABIAN team will be on hand throughout the weekend to answer questions, offer advice and help you explore different sounds and setups.

Whether you’re looking for something specific, comparing options or simply curious to hear what’s new, come in and spend some time with us.

Every time drummers and percussionists get together, famous or not, there’s an energy that fills the room. Stories get swapped, kits get compared, and something familiar takes over. It’s a shared passion, a comradery that no other musicians in the band quite have. Whatever style you play, it makes us our own tribe.

Understanding that joy is part of what makes SABIAN different. It’s why we will always make cymbals by hand. Each player’s individual energy is projected into and out of their instrument, and we take that seriously. The energy our craftspeople put into every cymbal is what makes each one unique, and that quality helps define your sound, your creative expression, your voice. We respect the living metal, the craft that brings out its power, and the part it plays in creating your signature sound.

We don’t cut corners. We don’t put our ego ahead of yours. Your instrument is part of you, and it should contribute to your sound as much as your fingers and wrists. That’s our commitment: the best instruments we can make, so you can find your voice and play your way.
