„Paiste is my sound! No other cymbal I have tried has given me the freedom to fully express myself on the drums the way I hear it in my head. No matter the genre, I know that I can reach down in my bag and find something perfect for the situation. Not only does Paiste make the sounds I enjoy, the company itself is second to none. The amount of care and craftsmanship they put into their products is the same attention to detail they show to their artists. I can not play anything else !“
