New Sabian @ Mega! Just in time for our Birthday!
Howdy Guys and Gals, it’s Darren Versaico here, Head of Drums @ Mega Music. We have just received a massive new Sabian shipment, stacked full of all the new 2009 Products, just in time for Mega Music’s 8th Birthday sale! How convenient.
As many of you know, Sabian the worlds leading cymbal manufacturer never rests in search of new sounds and at Mega Music we have an entire Sabian Vault style room absolutely packed to the rafters with hundreds of these awesome new cymbals and without doubt the best selection in the country.
Jonathon Yip, Head of Sabian’s Australasian Division visited recently commenting “This is the best display of Sabian Products in the southern hemisphere”. That comment made me feel very proud, and lucky. Mega Music was awarded the Sabian Platinum Dealership Plaque shortly after.
It’s a fantastic feeling knowing when a customer walks in this room I know he or she is going to be blown away by the selection and quality of Sabian cymbals always at Mega Music. On the 28th May 2004, in Meductic New Brunswick, Canada at the Sabian Factory, I became an Authorized Sabian Factory Product Specialist, an award given to me by Bob Zildjian which I will cherish forever. I personally have been collecting cymbals for 23 years and I test and check every cymbal prior to putting them in the Sabian Vault. Some people talk to me about Boats Saying “Don’t talk to me about boats….I know boats…J”, me; I’m just a cymbalholic.
Anyway here’s a taste of all the new 2009 Sabian Products we’ve just received at Mega Music for you all to come out and try. Enjoy.
With its raw surface cut with single-line lathing, this versatile model responds with a dry stick sound, controlled wash, a raw and cutting bell, and a crashable edge.
A ride for every style, this RBDR delivers bright, crystal clear sticking at all volumes – low to loud – and solid bright punch when played on the raw, unlathed bell.
A classic SABIAN design, the RBDR puts out crisp sticking wherever your stick lands, from bow to unlathed bell. A hot, dark, simmering sound for all styles.
Super-fast, bright and cutting, this odd-sized power splash delivers with the right degree of speed and sustain to ensure it cuts through in any style of music.
Super-fast and with a full, explosive response, the X-Plosion Crash redefines the power potential for thinner cymbals, for even faster, punchier accents at all volumes.

With double the processing power, models and effects of competitive modeling amplifiers, the VYPYR Series dramatically redefines the power and scope of modern guitar amplification.

The All New DTXTREME3 Special Rack even has an inbuilt central spirit level so you can make sure you're set up is perfectly straight!!!
A New All-In-One Drum Kit for the masses. Roland’s V-Drums are the most popular electronic drums in the world, but not everyone has the room or budget for a full V-Drums kit. Introducing the new RolandHD-1. It's forged from the same technology as its predecessors, but it's much simpler to use. It’s also incredibly quiet, thanks to the newly designed kick beater, cushioned tom pads, and snare head. The HD-1 is also conveniently compact and stylish — perfect for every home, school, studio, etc. — and it's priced for the masses. Most of the HD-1’s components are mounted on one stand for easy setup and transport, and for a clean look. Just take it out of the box and play.
