I Don't Like Sabian (But These Sound Great) // Sabian HHX Complex Review

Although I love all cymbals, I'm usually not a Sabian guy. Today I'm playing and reviewing what are probably my favorite cymbals from Sabian in a long time - the HHX Complex series.

Not only that, but we're pitting them head to head against some of my favorite hand-picked Meinls to see how they stack up.

Let me know what you think, and thanks for watching!
