Description
The AVX marching pairs, part of the Audio Visual Seavine Series by Sabian, are designed by Sabian artist Chelsea Levine, cymbal educator at Rhythm X, and offer a world championship level sound. AVX pairs feature GRIP ZONE, an innovative design that features a 2-inch etched area providing extra grip for off-hand techniques. Utilizing multiple hammering techniques, including a hand-hammered bell, AVX pairs deliver a darker, more mature sound profile than the AV pairs, with unique overtones and a quick, impactful crash. Slightly lighter than HHX New Symphonic Viennese pairs, AVX pairs are crafted for precision and ease of use, making them a standout choice for serious cymbal players looking for both performance and playability.
These 18″ AV pairs are crafted for responsiveness and ease of play. A larger centre hole simplifies strap threading, while the enlarged bell improves balance and accuracy in crash techniques. Deeper lathing grooves on the underside enhance articulation for zings and scrapes, helping them project clearly in ensemble settings.
Please note: Cymbals are pictured with straps and pads. They ship with SEAVINE straps only. Sabian pads are sold separately.
