A China That Knows Its Place in a Mix
It's ironic that one of the most musical Chinas we've heard at Sweetwater comes from the Paiste Rude series. True to its namesake, the 14" Paiste Rude Blast China is explosive and trashy. It works great with blast beats and breakdowns - especially in a stack with a splash. But what surprised us is how well its throaty wash and fast decay work as a traditional crash. The Blast China has a dark pitch but a thin, delicate tone that won't hog a mix no matter how how hard or fast you play.

For raw attitude and projection that carries beyond the stage, there's nothing like Paiste Rude cymbals. Each crash, hat, and ride in this series is built with one goal in mind: unbridled musical energy. So whether you sling sludge in the South or rock studio metal in Sweden, take it from Sweetwater: Paiste's RUDE series cymbals have what you're after. Just ask Hatebreed's Matt Byrne or Slayer's Paul Bostaph.
