Paiste's Description: <<< - >>>
Review: "The 16" and 18" China Types didn't produce what I would call a typical "Chinese" sound. Now, don't misunderstand me here: I much preferred these cymbals to more traditional China types. I found them more musical and much less "trashy"— and yet they were still a strong contrast to the other Alpha models. So as far as I'm concerned, they served the function of China types completely; they simply did it in a slightly different manner from the norm"
