Alright guys, it's official! This will be the first ever consumer trip to the Sabian factory!

May 3 - 5, 2012

Here are the details:

Fly into Bangor on May 3, 2012 and fly out on the 5th.

This is a Thursday, Friday and Saturday.

Thursday is mainly travel - we will end up at the hotel that evening for dinner and drinks and a lot of drum talk.

FRIDAY - Sabian factory tour. You will be able to pick out any cymbal you like from the Sabian Vault (this is yours to keep!). The master smiths will be on hand to help "customize" your cymbal in any way you would like (extra hammering, lathing, holes, rivets, etc). One cymbal is included in the trip, but if you would like more you can purchase as many as you would like.

Friday evening - dinner, drinks and good times.

SATURDAY - travel back - flights need to be booked for after noon.

Cost will be $775. This covers transportation from the airport (Bangor, ME) to the factory, hotel rooms for the two nights, food for the duration, one cymbal of your choice from the vault and transportation back to the airport on Saturday morning.

Payment arrangements can be made (four monthly payments of $193.75).
