17" Paiste 900 Series Crash Cymbal

Product Description

The Paiste 17" 900 Series Crash is a well-built crash cymbal made from the same CuSn20 bronze alloy used in the Paiste 2002 series. It is machine-made in its first stage and hand-hammered in the final step, giving it a warm, full, and dynamic sound at a great price.

The 900 Series aims to strike a golden middle ground between pure machine manufacturing and traditional hand-hammering. The result is a medium-thickness cymbal with a volume ranging from medium-low to loud, a washy attack sound, and lively intensity. The bell is integrated into the cymbal, giving a cohesive and clear bell tone.

Sound Character

The sound is described as warm, full, and dynamic, with an open, washy character that adds life and movement to the mix. The cymbal works well both live and in the studio, across genres and musical contexts.

Construction

The CuSn20 alloy is the same type used in Paiste's 2002 series. Machine manufacturing in the first stage ensures consistent quality, while the final hand-hammering adds subtle nuances to the sound that are difficult to achieve by machine alone.
