Paiste 400 Hi-hat 14" test

[arf189]

I have a pair of sound edge 400's that I have had since I can remember (got my first drumset when I was 3). Unfortunately, the top cymbal is getting a mean crack in it :(. I guess you can't complain about a cymbal only lasting 20 some odd years though

play in an wind orchestra at my local music center and that cymbals i use every week are the paiste 400 hi hat crash/ride and crash. they bound brilliant

Haha.. awesome.. those babies are getting rare. Paiste have always been pretty good with entry level cymbals, but I'm still impressed. These go back to 86-89.. they were the predecessors of the 502s (kind of), which lay slightly below pst5 . They DID make a sound edge model (I've seen one, at least), but it's really rare.

[Nochoys]

No they are not sound edge, they only are hammered

[flesheatingsmoothy]

[Nochoys]

Thanks! they really sound good specially if you compare it with some ¨better¨ lines that cost twice more

[flesheatingsmoothy]
