Historical Context and Positioning in the Range
A direct descendant of the AA series, a cornerstone of Sabian's catalog, the 22114 continues the DNA of rides that shaped the soundtracks of the 60s and 70s. It features the typical brightness and responsiveness of the AA line, combined with modern manufacturing for consistency from piece to piece. Positioned as a Heavy ride with strong projection, it is aimed at those who want to recapture the "classic" brilliance without sacrificing current reliability.
Who This Cymbal Is For
Ideal for drummers in rock, energetic pop, and live amplified setups, this ride is also suitable for studios seeking exemplary stick definition. Its dense ping remains clear as volume increases, while the harmonic wash stays controlled to prevent runaway resonance. Perfect for straight grooves, heavy half-time beats, and pronounced bell accent patterns.
