For a number of years, China cymbals have been affectionately known by their nickname "trash cymbals." Don't let this nickname fool you however, at it is actually derived from the dark, explosive tone that the cymbal emits when it is struck. Ask any performer and they'll tell you that these cymbals are a crucial component of any standard drum kit, which is why you deserve the best craftsmanship possible. That's where Paiste comes into play. Often regarded as one of the top cymbal manufacturers that the world has ever known, purchasing a Paiste China cymbal is definitely a worthy investment for any percussionist.
