Paiste 18" Giant Beat Thin

The Paiste 18" Giant Beat Thin is a fairly dark, warm, breathy cymbal with a medium wide range, slightly complex mix. 

These venerable cymbals – developed during the 1960’s rapid expansion of popular music – were faithfully recreated and re-launched by Paiste in 2005. Giant Beat cymbals offer the big, warm, brilliant vintage sound that takes you straight back to the roots of Rock.
