Drum Cymbal Paiste PST 7 Thin Crash 14"

The PST 7 series, introduced since 2014, is aimed at drummers seeking a warm, traditional sound that maintains affordability. Paiste combined Swiss manufacturing precision with a long tradition of sound design to create the PST 7. PST 7 cymbals are made from the same CuSn8 alloy used in the legendary 2002 series – it's known for its power, warmth and stability.

The Paiste PST 7 Thin Crash 14" is a compact, lightweight crash with a warm, mellow character designed for delicate, controlled playing. Its compact shape and light weight make it sound fast, bright and airy. Its attack is lively and impulsive, while its sustained sustain remains medium – long enough for the crash to open up, but not so long that it overpowers the other instruments in the mix. The sound of the cymbal is warm and bright at the same time, with an airy texture and a light, shiny aftertaste that adds a sense of transparency. The frequency range is quite wide, the mix is clean, and the overall character is soft and controlled. Response is lively, sensitive to the slightest touch, and the overall playing feel is soft and comfortable. This model is made of CuSn8 bronze, the alloy that is the basis of the legendary 2002 series. Hand-finished by Swiss craftsmen, the cymbal has the classic look and feel of the more expensive professional series. The subtle yet balanced sound makes this cymbal versatile – it is equally well suited for live performance as it is for informal recording at home or in the studio.
