„Mein erstes Paiste Becken war ein Masters Dark Crash Ride in 20" - dieses Becken ist so komplex und vielseitig, dass ich nie wieder einen Gig ohne es gespielt habe. Seitdem wächst meine Sammlung an Paiste-Becken stetig, und freue mich sehr endlich Teil der Paiste Family of Artists zu sein!“

    Volume: Medium
    Weight: Light

    Sound character: Dark, warm, smoky. Medium wide range, complex mix. Buttery, soft feel with quick response. Rich, dark, mystical crash sound with tender clarity. Extremely lively cymbal for broad accents and crashes in intimate to semi-loud settings. Well suited for delicate ride patterns or mallet swells. «For those guys who really appreciate just having a cymbal that can do everything, the larger Dark Crashes can do anything. Very crash-able, and if you want to ride on them, they will give you all the ride patterns in the world.» - Gregory Hutchinson
