16" Paiste RUDE Thin Crash Cymbal

Product Description

The 16" RUDE Thin Crash from Paiste is built for raw, hard-hitting music. The RUDE series launched in the early 80s and stood out from the crowd with its aggressive, unpolished sound, and it still does today. This model is a thin-weight cymbal cast in CuSn20 bronze, giving it a raw, sharp attack with a washy character and a fairly long bell.

• Raw, hard, sharp attack with high intensity
• Washy sound with a fairly long bell
• Built-in chick sound when closed
• Handles everything from medium soft to loud without losing character

Sound Character

The sound is described as raw, hard, sharp, distinct and powerful. The attack is washy with sharp intensity, letting the cymbal cut through even a dense, messy mix. The bell has a fairly long ring, and the cymbal has a built-in chick sound.

Construction

The cymbal is cast in CuSn20 bronze alloy and belongs to Paiste's RUDE series, built in a thin weight to deliver a raw, open attack rather than a tight, controlled sound.

Who It's For

The RUDE Thin Crash suits players in rock, hard rock, heavy metal, punk, hardcore and most modern metal styles, both live and in the studio. It's built for raw, messy, loud music rather than a clean, polished tone.
