As a beginner drummer I was a bit uncertain about which cymbals to get. There are lots of opinions out there saying to get the highest quality cymbals. I have to say, for where I am in my drumming journey these cymbals are giving me everything I need. I can get a full set of cymbals at a reasonable price. They are just right for helping me to develop my skills. I'm very happy with Sabian's B8x line.
