Crescent Cymbals

Boutique line absorbed by Sabian

Crescent built a reputation on dark, dry, jazz-oriented cymbals and on the Stanton Moore signature series. Sabian acquired the brand in 2015 and continued the lines, which is how a boutique voice ended up inside a large factory's catalogue.

Models

  • Crescent Element Series

    Cymbal

    Element covers the standard crashes, rides, and hats in Crescent's dark, quick-decaying voice, at a lower price than the signature series.

  • Crescent Stanton Moore Series

    Cymbal

    Developed with the New Orleans drummer, the Stanton Moore series is dark, dry, and fast, with a wide flat ride and hats that close hard. Sabian continued the line after acquiring Crescent.
