| I've been using Paiste 'Signature' cymbals since they first appeared in 1989. They are awesome sounding, incredibly consistent and the range is vast, so I can indulge my peculiar sound tastes. I'm currently looking at the new 'Dark Energy' cymbals and may well incorporate some of these into my setup. We'll have to see! |
