Turkish Cast and Hand Hammered in Switzerland Combining the best of the "old world" and new, the Paiste Masters Dark Crash Ride is made with cast bronze that is shaped in a Turkish foundry. The cymbal blank is then sent to the Swiss factory where it is hand hammered, lathed, and tested to give drummers a fine instrument that delivers every time. Traditional B20 Bronze Alloy for Dark Sound Using traditional bronze, the Dark Crash Ride allows Paiste to deliver a cymbal with warm undertones and strong, but warm stick sounds. Using methods as old as cymbal making itself, these instruments capture the best of crash and ride sounds. Designed to Capture Both Ride and Crash Sounds Perfectly Using old world technique and a modern eye for functionality, the Masters Dark Crash Ride captures the essence of the instrument with a big full crash and strong stick sounds. This deeply hand hammered instrument has a huge mysterious overtone when crashed or played as a ride, while never losing the definition of the stick.
