The 900 Series is created from Paiste's industry standard CuSn8 bronze alloy, and refined with Swiss craftsmanship by hand hammering and lathing. A special darker finish amplifies the lathing grooves and hammer marks for a gorgeous appearance that blends roughness and elegance. This 18" China cymbal gives you tremendous quality for the price. The 900 series is a medium-thin china cymbal that projects a complex, dark, trashy crash, and pangy ride sounds with some washy sustain. We proudly carry all of Paiste's 900 series cymbals.
