„I have been playing Paiste Cymbals all my life… always loved them and always will!! Especially after visiting the factory in Switzerland in 1991(where the magic happens) and meeting Toomas Paiste, who was a great and inspiring fellow! Paiste has always supported me very well internationally! ….Peace!“
