Paiste Masters 16-inch thin hi-hats

General

For this 16-inch hihat, Paiste has used its special CuSn20-Bronze. Processing this into a thin top and a medium thin bottom has given the hihat a warm, soft and wide sound. You can hear this in the stick sound, the open sound and the chick. Moreover, you have an immediate response and a lot of control, so your playing comes across as clearly articulated. This makes the hihat very versatile, especially for drummers who play a lot of complicated patterns. With a size of 16 inches, this model is the largest of the series and on the hefty side.

Masters series

The Masters series is handmade by Paiste in Switzerland. The same method has been used for this purpose for more than 50 years. The thin models have been added to the series as true all-round cymbals. They are based on models for jazz and acoustic sets, but are more versatile in nature due to their low weight.

Tips or comments about this product

• Please note: the image shows a 14-inch model, the 16-inch version is supplied.
• Please note that it is normal for the cymbal surface of a Paiste Master cymbal to have bumps. The special appearance is the result of the very extensive manufacturing process of these handmade cymbals. This process guarantees the unique sound of the Master series.
