Rare Warm Complex Paiste ORIGINAL ETCHED LOGO TRADITIONAL Thin Crash 16” 927 g CLEAN

A RARE 25 YEAR OLD Paiste that is very hard to find these days - especially in such miraculous shape! It’s one of the best DARK COMPLEX crashes they ever produced, and they make nothing like it today:

The Original Etched Logo Paiste Traditional 16” THIN CRASH in amazing condition. I know, I can’t believe it either. It doesn’t look look like a clam had a one-night stand with a Ruffles Potato Chip.
These Original Etched Logo Traditionals are much darker, warmer and much more complex than the newer version.

And that is exactly the case with this 25 year old Traditional Paiste.  It’s softer, bendable, more pliable and played-in than the new ones.  And it’s much more musical over all. So low are dark it could pass as an 18”, but it opens up faster.

These Original Traditionals were a departure from Paiste’s sterile, clean tone.

927 grams makes it a true THIN CRASH.

Very dark. Warm. Very organic, especially for Paiste. Low pitched. Overall complex and with a hint of welcomed Vintage dirtiness you just don’t find in Paistes. That’s why these Etched Logos are unique.

No dents dings cracks - and that’s almost impossible to find today. It looks like you went back in a Time Machine!
