16" 900 Series China, Paiste

Product Description

The Paiste 900 Series China is a 16" effects cymbal with a warm, full and dynamic sound suited to pretty much any musical setting. It's machine-made at its core, then hand-hammered in the final stage, giving it a lively, trashy attack. A good choice if you want a great-sounding china without paying for a fully hand-hammered cymbal.

• Washy attack with trashy intensity
• Medium thin weight for a good balance of volume and control
• Integrated chick sound
• Medium bell
• Medium to loud volume

Sound Character

The 900 Series is cast from the same CuSn20 bronze alloy as Paiste 2002, giving it a full, warm fundamental tone. The attack is washy with a distinct trashy character typical of a china, while the bell delivers a medium, clear sound to play on. The chick sound is built into the cymbal's character rather than being a separate trait.

Construction

The cymbal starts out machine-made, giving a consistent and cost-effective base process. It's then hand-hammered in the final stage, adding the nuance and character usually associated with hand-hammered cymbals. The result is a well-built cymbal at a good price.

Who It's For

Great for players who gig or record and want a versatile china that works across most genres and musical contexts, without breaking the bank.
