Historical Context and Positioning in the Range
The Paiste PST7 series embodies the "Paiste Sound Technology" philosophy: offering a cymbal with a refined sound and careful design in an accessible approach. Designed for drummers seeking a traditional grain, it relies on the CuSn8 alloy, also known as "2002 Bronze," thus continuing the sonic lineage of the legendary 2002 series. The hammering performed by Swiss artisans contributes to this identity: a clear response, a musical output, and a "living" cymbal feel under the stick.
