Dixie
Contents
Introduction: 1958
Discontinued: 1978
Background:
Innovation:
Alloy: NS12 (early versions), B8 (after 1971)
Quality: Entry-level series
Production: The Dixie series seemingly makes its first catalog appearance in 1959. This means they probably were released at some point during 1958. The Paiste timeline has 1954 as the start date out of Germany, but the Dixie doesn't appear in any of the 1950s German catalog materials we have including an Autumn 1958 catalog. Early 404's were leftover restamped B8 Dixies
Applications: Dixie cymbals are made with the usual Paiste precision and care. This line offers excellent sound and response.
Ideal for the beginner or student, who wants a quality product without a big investment.
Users:
Sound: '71 and later B8 Dixies were similar in sound and quality to the later 404's
Thin, Medium and Heavy
Hi-Hats
