Independent shopping perspective
Paiste’s 18 in. 900 Series Crash is a medium-weight crash with a washy stick response, medium sustain, and medium-to-loud output. It covers a broad range of musical applications, so it can serve as a flexible crash voice in a working drum setup. The bell and bow are hand-hammered, and its edges are hand-trued. Full lathing and a traditional finish complete the design.
