Paiste Traditionals 20'' Medium Ride

Paiste Traditionals 20'' Medium Ride

Medium Ride 20" The Medium Ride has a clear defined, sizzling, silvery, yet soft stick sound. The harmonics are of a rather dense and dry, controlled quality. The overall sound appearance could be described as "misty", "foggy" with a sweet "frosty" stick sound.

Paiste Line "Traditional" Paiste has undertaken a remarkable historical research project aimed at accurately re-creating the "lost" cymbal sounds of the 40's-50's-60's era, the Golden Age of Blues, Jazz, Big Band, and Be-Bop. Researched in loving detail and tested by drummers noted for their historical expertise, the new "Traditional" collection - four models of Rides, as well as Hi-Hat, Splash, China, Crash and Swish cymbals - makes the rich sounds of history, from sizzling Big Band swing and Jazz to the smoky intensity of Bop and Blues available today. Unlike the fragile vintage instruments from those times, the new "Traditional" cymbals offer the unique range, versatility of expression, and reliable durability offered by Paiste's patented "Sound Alloy", the state-of-the-art bronze compound from which they are crafted. These new instruments will especially delight collectors, connoisseurs and lovers of traditional cymbal sound.
