Paiste Masters 16" Dark Crash crash cymbal
If you want a crash cymbal with a dark tonal character and plenty of personality, the Paiste Masters 16" Dark Crash is a strong match. This handcrafted cymbal is made from CuSn20 bronze, also known as traditional or 602 bronze, and follows the sound concept of the Masters series: warm, full and deep.
Within that series, each cymbal has its own sonic identity, and this 16 inch crash clearly leans toward the darker side. That makes it useful in styles where nuance, depth and a musical crash sound matter.
Built for live and studio use
The Paiste Masters 16" Dark Crash suits different playing styles, from soft to loud. That gives you room to use it for subtle work as well as stronger accents.
According to the series description, this crash cymbal performs especially well in jazz, blues, R&B, funk, pop and country, both live and in the studio. At Magna Music, you can also count on advice from staff who are musicians themselves, which is helpful if you want to compare different Paiste cymbals.
Masters series with handcrafted character
The Masters series started with a selection of twelve rides and was later expanded with crashes and hi-hats. In this range, Paiste combines decades of cymbal-making experience with inspiration from international top drummers.
For you, that means a 16 inch crash from a series developed with high sound standards in mind and suited to multiple genres and playing situations.
