Paiste Thin

Series - Sizes

THIN cymbals are made especially for crash-effects and accents. Because they are thin, they vibrate at the slightest touch. This give them a brilliant, floating rustle with a deeper, darker sound color. When they are played sensitively, they can also be used for ride.
MEDIUM RIDE and THIN cymbals have been made especially for the sound characteristics described above. Therefore, you should not expect good crash effects from a ride cymbal, nor a clear ride from a thin cymbal. They do not have it in them because they are not made for it. (2)
