Review: The end of my 8 years search! - I have been looking for a china cymbal for several years. With no luck. I could not find one that it was not gongy, klangy, or not musical. The Wuhan was the closest one to what I wanted. But it was lacking finesse. This china has it all. Even at a low volume setting, it produces beautiful sounds. You don’t have to only whack it to make it sing. Of course this is a very personal choice, but if you want a short, musical, loud, trashy china, check it out. Review: Crisp and Dynamic - I have quite a few chinas of varying size and design, but this one is my favorite. It has a crisp response and a moderate sustain, without being overbearing typical of larger chinas. The sound compliments crashes and splashes well, and has a nice contrast to bells and rides. It has quickly become an everyday fixture on my kit. I play many genres, from funk rock and reggae, to metal and blues. It works well with them all! You won't be sorry after picking this one up. ## Features - Developed with RHCP drummer Chad Smith, truly a monster of loudness and cut! - 51 holes, large raw bell, high profile and wide lip combine to create an explosive package - Creative designs for creative players ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00716AGS2 | | Best Sellers Rank | #61,116 in Musical Instruments ( See Top 100 in Musical Instruments ) #23 in China Cymbals | | Body Material | Brass | | Brand | Sabian | | Brand Name | Sabian | | Color | Brass | | Connector Type | clamp | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 80 Reviews | | Finish Type | Polished | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00622537066573 | | Included Components | not included | | Item Dimensions | 17 x 17 x 1 inches | | Item Type Name | Cymbal | | Item Weight | 660 g | | Item dimensions L x W x H | 17 x 17 x 1 inches | | Manufacturer | Sabian - Direct | | Material | Stainless Steel | | Model Name | 17" AA Holy China, Brilliant Finish | | Model Number | 21716CSB | | Number of Items | 1 | | Part Number | 21716CSB | | Sound Profile | Bright, explosive, loud | | UPC | 622537066573 | | Warranty Description | Protected by sabian two-year warranty. | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Sabian - **Color:** Brass - **Item dimensions L x W x H:** 17 x 17 x 1 inches - **Material:** Stainless Steel - **Model Name:** 17" AA Holy China, Brilliant Finish ## Images ![SABIAN 17" AA Holy China Cymbal, Brilliant Finish - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71o5l28t31L.jpg) ![SABIAN 17" AA Holy China Cymbal, Brilliant Finish - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51AITZ8HHyL.jpg) ![SABIAN 17" AA Holy China Cymbal, Brilliant Finish - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61bhqJ7I95L.jpg) ![SABIAN 17" AA Holy China Cymbal, Brilliant Finish - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51XrE2EZ+ML.jpg) ![SABIAN 17" AA Holy China Cymbal, Brilliant Finish - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71qP92llEvL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size, Style** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The end of my 8 years search! *by B***O on September 22, 2021* I have been looking for a china cymbal for several years.

Hit it, burst of bright white noise, and it’s gone. Excellent. ## Frequently Bought Together - SABIAN 17" AA Holy China, Brilliant Finish - Gibraltar GCA Grabber Cymbal Arm - Evans Genera HD Dry Snare Drum Head - 14 Snare Drum Head - Featuring Vent Holes to Control Sustain & Tighten Sound - Overtone Control - Coated with 2 Plies - 14 Inch --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.jp/products/14741469-sabian-17-aa-holy-china-cymbal-brilliant-finish](https://www.desertcart.jp/products/14741469-sabian-17-aa-holy-china-cymbal-brilliant-finish) --- *Product available on Desertcart Japan* *Store origin: JP* *Last updated: 2026-09-29*
