Paiste Color Sound 900 20-inch Purple Heavy Ride

General

If you like to go to town on your cymbals, then you're probably partial to loud volumes and heavier styles of music. If that's the case, then this 20-inch Heavy Ride by Paiste is just what the doctor ordered! It's made from the brand's custom CuSn8-Bronze alloy and is nice and thick. The material is hammered by hand to form a well-built cymbal that offers a powerful, sharp sound. Its large bell produces a clear ping. When it comes to this cymbal's aesthetic properties, its purple coating makes it impossible to miss!

Color Sound 900

Paiste has had coloured cymbals in their assortment since 1984, but they've only recently breathed new life into them with their Color Sound 900 series. The range is based on Paiste's 900 series but each cymbal has a different-coloured coating on top. This coating is very thin but durable and scratch-proof. Besides the visual aspect, the coating gives these cymbals a drier sound with a shorter sustain and bigger attack.
