Paiste's Description: <<< - >>>
Review: "In the 3000 line, Paiste's Novo China represents a relatively new cymbal design. It has the same shape as a "normal" China, except for its bell, which is about the size of a ride cymbal bell and is pointed in the opposite direction of other Chinas'. According to Paiste, this design allows one to play on the bell. But even though the bell on our test cymbal was quite large, its sound wasn't all that clear. Also, since the bell points in the same direction as the bevel of the cymbal, we found it difficult to strike, since you have to playdown and into the center of the cymbal. Aside from the problem with the bell, though, this was a very good-sounding cymbal. It was loud and cutting, with a fair amount of sustain,and would probably be better-suited fo crashing purposes than for riding."
