The Gentleman of the Rude Series
With its thin weight and medium volume, the Thin Crash is by far the most polite member of the Paiste Rude series - that's not to say it doesn't have the same cut and character as the other Rude cymbals. The 17" Rude Thin Crash has an explosive response, which makes it a natural choice for punchy accents where a splash or traditional crash won't do.

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.
