Wide-ranging Hand-hammered Hats with Color Coating
Paiste Color Sound 900 14" Sound Edge Hi-Hats exhibit a wide-ranging voice, defined chick, and responsive feel. Extra pneumatic hammering along the bottom cymbal's edge yields greater articulation between the top and bottom cymbals. Experience excellent touch sensitivity, along with a lively intensity and crisp stick sound. A medium top/medium-heavy bottom combination generates a sharp, cutting sound with medium to loud volume. Color Sound 900 Sound Edge Hi-Hats ring with a medium to long sustain that works well in a variety of playing environments. And their luminous translucent finish is sure to garner lots of attention.

Based on Paiste's 900 Series cymbals, the Color Sound 900 Series yields a slightly drier sound with shorter sustain. Otherwise, you can expect the same great sound and flexibility. The translucent color-coated finishes on these cymbals are positively radiant. They maintain the natural appearance of the cymbals, including the grooves and hammer marks. Best of all, the color coating is specially formulated to resist cracking, chipping, and peeling. Drummers here at Sweetwater use 900 Series cymbals to color-coordinate their cymbals with the rest of their drum kits, match their stage decor, and create a custom look under the lights.
Paiste: a history of visual expression
The Color Sound 900 Series isn't Paiste's first foray into color-coated cymbals. In 1984, Paiste stunned the industry with its Colorsound 5 Series. When the '90s rolled around, the Visions Series hit the scene. And more recently, Paiste unveiled their Artist Inspiration models, such as Stewart Copeland's Blue Bell Ride, Aquiles Priester's Giga Bell Ride, and Danny Carey's Dry Heavy Ride. Also, top drummers such as Joey Jordison, Tico Torres, and Paul Bostaph have custom color-coated cymbals.
