Forged from legendary 2002 Bronze, the Paiste 900 Series 14" Heavy Hi–Hat Cymbal Pair combines Swiss precision with innovative hybrid manufacturing techniques. These cymbals undergo meticulous hand hammering and lathing processes, refined by traditional Swiss craftsmanship. The special finish creates a distinctive darkened appearance that highlights the lathing grooves and hammer marks, producing a striking visual that balances roughness with elegance.
The innovative design philosophy behind the 900 Series provides enhanced flexibility, resulting in exceptional playability and a responsive feel under the sticks. These heavy–weight hi–hats produce a warm, full sound character with brilliant, fat, and powerful tones. The wide range and clean mix make them suitable for medium to very loud playing volumes, while maintaining strong stick definition and energetic brightness.
With their defined, solid chick sound and medium–long sustain, these versatile hi–hats excel across the entire spectrum of musical styles. The lively intensity and fairly heavy feel make them particularly well–suited for energetic playing situations, from live performances to studio recording sessions. The 900 Series represents Paiste’s commitment to creating cymbals that meet diverse stylistic requirements while maintaining the legendary warmth, brilliance and strength of 2002 Bronze.
