Paiste900 Series Heavy Crash 17 in.
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
The 17-inch Paiste 900 Series Heavy Crash is a responsive, high-volume crash for players who hit hard. Its fat, powerful voice is paired with long sustain, giving accents more length after the initial impact. Despite its heavy designation, the crash is described with good dynamic range, allowing the player to work across different playing levels. It is aimed at drum parts that need a strong crash presence in amplified settings.

Who this is for
