History:
Purchase: These are Sabian cymbals. Sabian is very popular for their good quality and afordable prices. The B8 First Set is no exception. You get 13 or 14in hi-hats, and a 16in thin crash.
What I Like About This Unit: The sound is not all that bad. But in contrast with the price, about $110, its good. They are very durable also.
What I Do NOT Like About The Sabian B8 First Pack: When played w/ no music behind you they sound alittle bad, kinda like cheap sounding. And the color is bad.
B8 First Pack Quality: The construction is very good. I've had they for about 5 months and they haven't failed me yet.
Summary: I suggest you buy Sabians B8 First Pack w/ your first drum set. They are very afordable, and ok quality. But you shoudn't make your drum set all B8 b/c they don't sound as good as Sabian higher grades or near close to higher grades of Zildjian cymbals.
