Drummers are no strangers to noise. But what do you do if your splash just can't be tamed? You grab a Sabian FRX 10" Splash, of course! This professional-quality splash retains all of the dynamic properties and the striking feel that you'd expect from a Sabian cymbal, yet it's much more well behaved. This is thanks to the array of perforations near the bell dampen unwanted overtones without modifying the cymbal's volume or tone. For applications that need a little more sensitivity, the Sabian FRX 10" Splash is the way to go. It's a great option for small stages, pit orchestras, close-miking applications, and more. And if that's not enough, this cymbal is made from Sabian's secret B20 formula for a fast attack that quickly gets out of the way.

Frequency limited, not volume reduced





As drummers, we devote a good deal of time and energy to taming our kits: damping toms, muffling kick drums, and trying to mask and subdue cymbals with gels, tapes, and clever miking. The Sabian FRX series works in settings where other cymbals may be too bold, such as intimate gatherings and recording applications. Sabian FRX professional cymbals are not volume reduced ? just frequency limited. A series of micro-perforations near the bell reduces unwanted overtones for better seating among an ensemble. This same technology gives FRX cymbals a smooth, defined response that will delight players of discerning tastes. Get control over your cymbals with the Sabian FRX series from Sweetwater.





Lightweight B20 bronze construction





Every cymbal in the Sabian FRX series begins with Sabian's guarded B20 bronze recipe, unmatched for dynamics and musical expression. Dark, rich, and luxurious, the 10" FRX Splash will be a cymbal you keep on your kit in and out of season.
