Looking for a pro cymbal set without the clang and tang of traditional cymbals? You'll find it here in the Sabian FRX Performance Cymbal Set from Sweetwater. Micro-perforations near the bell and along the edge of Sabian FRX series cymbals subdue offensive overtones without significantly impacting cymbal volume or range. This makes Sabian FRX cymbals solid contenders for smaller stages, houses of worship, pit orchestras, and close-miking applications. Sabian's lightweight B20 construction gives the FRX series a tone and response that players will enjoy at home, onstage, and at all sound levels.

What’s So Great About Buying Drums from Sweetwater?


What's included?


14" FRX Hats ? Hi-hats have a way of dominating a mix. But not Sabian's extra-thin FRX hi-hats. These cymbals are fully dynamic yet specially tuned to keep from taking over. You get crisp, clean definition and controlled projection.


16" and 18" FRX Crashes ? Extra-thin Sabian FRX crash cymbals are fully dynamic yet specially tuned to keep from poking through a mix. These crashes boast a quick, shimmering response and an exquisitely soft feel.


21" FRX Ride ? If your current ride is causing headaches in your band, you'll enjoy the dark, defined attack and buttery-smooth wash of the 21" Sabian FRX Ride.


Frequency limited, not volume reduced





As drummers, we devote a good deal of time and energy to taming our kits: damping toms, muffling kick drums, and trying to mask and subdue cymbals with gels, tapes, and clever miking. The Sabian FRX series works in settings where other cymbals may be too bold, such as intimate gatherings and recording applications. Sabian FRX professional cymbals are not volume reduced ? just frequency limited. Micro-perforations near the bell and along the edge reduce unwanted overtones for better seating among an ensemble. This same technology gives FRX cymbals a smooth, defined response that will delight players of discerning tastes. Get control over your cymbals with the Sabian FRX series from Sweetwater.





Lightweight B20 bronze construction





Every cymbal in the Sabian FRX series begins with Sabian's guarded B20 bronze recipe, unmatched for dynamics and musical expression. Dark, rich, and luxurious, the FRX Performance Cymbal Set is one you'll keep on your kit in and out of season.
