Paiste Signature Line

18" Full crash

Along the way to the optimal cymbal, a special Paiste Sound Alloy from patented bronze was developed for their Signature Series. The result are cymbals that have been gaining recognition since their introduction in 1989 and have proven themselves both in the studio, as well as live. Their sound enjoys a high expressive power that can be described all at once as delicate, transparent, musical, emotional and colourful.

The Full Crash of the Signature Line is a medium-heavy, versatile cymbal with a bright, full crash and a medium-length fading out time. A very corpulent sound, that tingles and shimmers.

A beautiful crash cymbal for many styles of music.

Ike 30.10.2014

This is an excellent, bright, full-bodied crash cymbal for a variety of styles of music. It speaks quickly and has just the right amount of sustain. It's loud enough to act as a great crash/ride in the heaviest heavy metal song, but also sensitive enought to respond to a light touch at fairly low volumes. The cymbal also works as a ride with a nice ping and cool wash when played softly, and its bell has an excellent, clear, cutting sound. The 18" size means that this isn't the ideal cymbal for VERY low-volume applications - a cymbal of this size and weight naturally has a certain volume level - so a smaller size Full Crash would probably work better for your dinner-party gig at the local hotel. But if you're playing pop, rock, R&B, or metal, you should definitely check this out.

The 18 " Full Crash isn't an indestructible cymbal; I've personally cracked two over a period of 10 years of regular playing, most of that heavy metal (so they do hold up pretty well!). But while they don't last forever, Paiste's legandary quality control ensures that if you do have to get a replacement, it'll sound damn near identical to the one you had before.

Clear attack and a beautiful, well sustained wash. Perhaps not perfectly suited for all kinds of music because of its well defined tone and lack of trashy quality, but you certainly cannot complain about having one of these around in any situation. Top notch and a bit pricey, so take care of them.

Dieses Becken ist einfach DER HAMMER !!! Der wunderschöne, klare und kräftige Sound den man diesem Becken etlocken kann sind einfach UMWERFEND !! Zudem ist der Ton extrem flexibel, so dass es für so ziemlich jede/n Musik-Richtung/Stil zu gebrauchen ist !!! Allerdings hatte ich auch nix anderes erwartet, denn was von PAISTE SIGNATURE kommt ist IMMER sein geld wert :) !!

Also leute zögert NICHT und geniesst den geilen Sound :) !!!!

Excellente cymbale, son magnifique et cristallin, paiste dans toute sa splendeur, malheureusement elle a dû subir un choc pendant le transport car au bout de 5 mois deux fissures apparaissent au même endroit, et là c'est plus la même chanson, son de merde plus d'harmoniques, bref une casserole à 360 balles et le sav qui ne veut rien savoir, je suis extrêmement deçu
