Guess it's back up now.
Can anybody get on Sabian's website? I tried last night and it didn't work, but I just wrote it off as one of those stupid little glitches that happens now and again. But I tried again a few times...
Turns out that you can special order the Powerbell ride in other series.
YouTube - ‪Sabian AA Powerbell Ride Demo‬‏
YouTube - ‪22AAXPOWERBELL‬‏
Nice. You get the 18 or 22?
Basically, yea. Except the HH and HHX's are hand hammered, the AA and AAX's are hammered by a machine.
AA has traditional lathing, AAX has pinpoint lathing. The difference being that the AA's take more of a hit to "open up" and reach their full sound, whereas the AAX's will sound the same all the time...

I didn't know power bells were raw, though. Did they just start doing that?
They do ink reapplication, brilliant finish application, cleaning, and installation of sizzle rivets. They might do more than that if you ask them, but that's what it says on their "Because Service...
Wow, that really looks amazing. Congrats on the new cymbal!
It's too bad that Sabian doesn't offer a bulk package of sorts because basically all my cymbals could use some refinishing :/
Anybody know anything about the Vault Tour? I know there was one in 2005, but I haven't seen much about anything else.
Kind of a random question. Is there any difference between a Vault Fierce Crash and an HHX-Treme crash? They sound pretty similar to me.

Anyone here play or own a Virgil Donati Saturation crash?
Very true. I've been deceived by sound bytes far too many times in the past.
I'm not sure if the sound bytes on Sabian's website have been updated yet. I'd recommend the specific page for them to get a real idea of what they sound like.
It's not really a new line of B8 Pros. They announced that they were retooling the BP line along with the OMNI and Holy China. New hammering and other "subtle changes" that have really made the BP...
Anybody check out the new B8 Pros? Sabian launched their own dedicated site for new product demos featuring Tim Yeung. They actually sounds REALLY good for B8 cymbals.
I'm guessing you're talking about an Alu Bell.

They're made of aluminum (obviously) and have a very bright and cutting DING with a...
XS20's are better than Alpha's, IMO. For both value and sound.
Any of Sabian's Raw Bell Dry Rides would work. I personally have the AA model and I love it.
Oh man, that looks so nice. Congrats! The RBDR's are killer!
Ahh, that makes sense. That's great that you have a small shop you can support. The only small drum store around me is a guitar shop that just happens to sell drumsticks lol.
Great looking...
How come you avoid GC? They're not like the Wal-Mart of music stores or anything. But regardless of where you bought it from, you might have some issues returning it since it's about a month old....
Return it? I mean, assuming you bought it at GC or SA (basically, not from Craigslist), you should be able to return it no problem. Then just use that money towards the AAX you want.
His main hats are 14" AAX stage hats. His secondary hats are 13" HHX stage hats. Maybe that's what you're talking about.
