20" Paiste Sound Creation Dark China – 1900g (1978–1980, 16 Rivets)

Serial Number: None (consistent with early Sound Creation production)
Condition: Excellent used condition

Sound & Character:
A truly distinctive cymbal from the Paiste Sound Creation series, this 20" Dark China with 16 rivets delivers a deep, complex, and highly musical voice. Its sound is centered in the low-to-mid frequency range, supported by beautifully balanced harmonics and a short, controlled decay with no unwanted overtones.

  • Soft playing: Beckoning, mysterious, warm, and expressive

  • Medium dynamics: Commanding yet perfectly blended and musical

  • Harder playing: Wider frequency range with a cool, controlled edge

  • Decay: Short, focused, and clean

This cymbal excels in creative and artistic contexts—from slow, dirty guitar shuffles to subtle jazz or fusion textures—yet it can still hold its own in loud, amplified settings when needed.

Highlights:

  • Rare vintage Sound Creation Dark China

  • 16 rivets add depth, texture, and controlled sustain

  • Dark, warm, and complex with exceptional musical balance

  • Ideal for drummers seeking unique, expressive, and unconventional sounds

Professionally packed and shipped worldwide from Portugal.
