Paiste Ride Masters Collection Blue Bird 20"

Historical context and position within the range

CuSn20 bronze is one of the most highly regarded alloys in the world of cymbals: it is often associated with the “traditional” sounds sought after for their complexity, depth and lively character. The choice of handmade production in Switzerland places this cymbal in a high-end category, where the aim is not only power, but above all finesse, balance and sonic personality. Developed with André “Dédé” Ceccarelli, it further reinforces this positioning: this is clearly a cymbal designed by and for demanding musicians who are sensitive to touch and color.

Who this cymbal is for

This cymbal is primarily aimed at intermediate to expert drummers looking to take their definition, control and musicality to the next level. Fans of jazz (straight ahead, bebop, modern jazz), fusion, groove and styles of music where the cymbal needs to “speak” with subtlety will find it particularly inspiring. It is also ideally suited to studio work, thanks to a detailed sonic signature that sits in the mix without sounding aggressive.
