I have seen this cymbal mentioned in a few posts about china cymbals but I thought maybe it might deserve its own thread.
It's being endorsed by Chad Smith of the Red Hot Chili Peppers and *ehem Chickenfoot. For those unfamiliar, it's a thin china with several holes in it and a hammered flare. It's engineered to be trashy and LOUD.
They have a website @ http://www.sabianholychina.com/ with a cheesy little video.
Here is a video from the great Memphis Drum Shop showing it in a live setting.
I'm pretty interested in it, although I feel like I need to hear it in person. I have what seems to be a prototype of it from the summer cymbal tour.. it kinda resembles a paragon china. I love the sound of mine and it kinda has the trashy thin sound like these, but mine just doesn't really have that much volume.
Anyway, anybody picked up one of these yet or heard it in person?
