The Sabian 22" Nova Ride Cymbal is a 22" ride cymbal, made from a B20 bronze alloy, that is hand hammered, with a naural finish. The HH Pandora features a medium-dark tone, and medium-light weight, making this the ride cymbal for all players who like "Blue" notes. Sitting comfortably between the HH King and HH Nova in pitch and tone, it's the musical equivalent of opening Pandora's Box. “Big and Ugly” is the motto under which the Canadian manufacturer Sabian is launching a line of unique, altered Ride cymbals originally from various other series. The defining characteristic of these cymbals is the raw, somewhat dirty appearance, as well as the dark, dynamic and complex sound character typical of all of the "Big and Ugly" cymbal models.
