What is the Paiste 101 Brass Ride?
Paiste has been making cymbals in Switzerland since 1906, and the house sound is consistency. A model sounds like that model, kit to kit and year to year, which is why touring and session players specify a Paiste line rather than hunting for one good example of it. Alloy, lathing and hammering are matched to the series rather than the individual piece.
