Sabian Paragon Cymbals

With a name like Paragon, Sabian’s premiere line of cymbals would have to be top notch, and Sabian does not disappoint. The Paragon line, part of the Creative Series is at the forefront of professional cymbals, offering all you could want in bold, one of a kind sound design.

The Sabian Paragon cymbal line was created with conjunction with Rush drummer, Neil Peart. Peart’s aggressive, high energy style needed a high powered cymbal set that wouldn’t disappoint, which he found in the Paragon Line.

One of the biggest Paragon fans is Chris Pennie of Coheed and Cambria and the Dillinger Escape Plan. Pennie’s drum kit includes a 19” Signature Paragon Chinese cymbal. Mark Schulman, who has been touring since 1988 with musicians like Pink and Cher also uses the same Paragon Chinese cymbal as Pennie.

The Paragon line is naturally finished, which means that after production, the cymbal was lathed, which creates the tonal rings on the surface of the metal, without undergoing any further polishing. By stopping the process at lathing, your cymbal will have more tone and bite than cymbals with a brilliant finish.

The Sabian Paragon cymbal line is made with B20 bronze alloy. This metal, which contains only 80% copper and 20% tin with traces of silver, is one of the best bronze alloys on the market. The cymbals are hard, maintaining great focus and crisp control due to the higher levels of tin.

With Paragon cymbals, you’ll be playing in the big leagues in no time at all!
