General

Many professional or semi-professional rock drummers will find plenty to like in the shimmering, cutting sound of Paiste's Alpha Brilliant 18-inch rock crash. It's a robust cymbal with typical rock characteristics. Furthermore, this 18-inch rock crash with a brilliant finish is part of Paiste's highly successful Alpha series, and it's not just suited for rock, but also for other genres that need a bit more volume and power.

Paiste's popular Alpha B cymbals

The extraordinarily popular Alpha cymbals offer excellent quality and functionality. They're versatile semi-professional cymbals made of high-quality CuSn8 bronze (2002 bronze/B8 bronze) You'll find them on many professional drum kits. Whether you're on stage or in the recording studio, these cymbals will do just fine. In 1991, Paiste released the bright, energetic Alpha series of cymbals, which has now received an excellent upgrade with the brilliant finish Alpha B cymbals.

Paiste Alpha B 18-inch rock crash

Mooie klank, maar na een aantal maanden begint hij al te scheuren ondanks dat ik hem goed onderhouden heb. Ik heb precies hetzelfde gehad met de Alpha Swiss crash. Ik heb dit eigenlijk alleen met de "B" serie gehad, de A serie heb ik jaren met veel plezier gebruikt. Mede dankzij de slechtere kwaliteit van de nieuwere Paiste Alpha serie en de slechte klantvriendelijkheid van Paiste heb ik besloten om na meer dan 10 jaar Paiste gebruiker te zijn geweest over te gaan op Sabian.
