Available in 7- and 9-inch sizes, the Alu Bell features a dome shape and narrow striking edge. According to Sabian cymbal specialist David Williams, not only does aluminum create a clear and musical bell-like response, it is very light in weight, which contributes to its ability to produce long, sustaining notes. "Alu Bells were a consistent best seller on the Sabian Vault Tours," continued Williams. "When some of our major players heard them there was no stopping the concept. Everyone, whether playing Latin, jazz, or hard rock, was quick to see the potential and the requests began to roll in. That demand prompted this introduction."
