Part of the renowned PST 7 series, this cymbal is engineered for musicians and producers who demand a high level of sonic detail without the premium price tag. It is specifically suited for adding mellow, nuanced accents or providing bright, controlled crashes in low to moderate musical settings, making it an indispensable tool for session drummers and studio producers alike.

What sets the Paiste 17″ PST 7 Thin Crash apart is its unique sound profile. It delivers a clean mix with a fairly wide frequency range, characterized by a velvety, washy stick sound.

Its thin weight ensures that every strike translates into a lively, articulate response.

For the discerning musician, this cymbal offers versatility. While it excels at subtle accents, its bright character allows it to cut through a mix when needed. The Paiste 17″ PST 7 Thin Crash provides a perfect balance of brightness and warmth, allowing you to shape your sound from delicate washes to more pronounced, yet controlled, crashes.
