Paiste 18" Masters Extra Thin Cymbal 1159g

The 18" Paiste Masters Extra Thin Cymbal (5501118) is physically and acoustically, characterized by particular subtlety. Inspired by iconic studio master Jim Keltner's ideas for sound and function, Paiste's Sound Development created a warm, soft crash that unobtrusively and discreetly embeds itself in soft musical situations. Moreover, the swift decay supports even delicate ride playing. The Extra Thins feel incomparably soft. Their sensitive response allows hand playing and wonderful crescendos with mallets.

A note from Paiste: "Due to the one-of-a-kind, handcrafted manufacturing process of the Paiste Masters Series cymbals, customers may encounter hammer marks of different sizes and shapes, casting marks, and oxidation color marks. Paiste assures all Master Series cymbals to be of the utmost quality which has defined the Paiste sound for over a century."
