SABIAN STRATUS Cirro Stax Cymbals 12" (Model S12CS)

The SABIAN S12CS 12" STRATUS Cirro Stax is a modern, highly expressive effects cymbal stack designed to deliver a wide range of textures—from tight, cutting attacks to loose, sizzling effects. Built for creative drummers, the Cirro Stax offers unique feel and sound with striking visual character.

The 12" top cymbal features a raw front and lathed back, reducing tension and creating a loose, wavy, and flexible response. The 12" bottom cymbal is flat and raw, forming a stack that can be tightened for a short, focused attack or left loose for a trashy, sizzling effect. The top cymbal can also be played on its own, producing a distinctive phaser-like sound.
