Paiste 20inch Rude Novo China Cymbal

Born from the raw rebellion of late 1970s punk and metal, the Paiste 20" Rude Novo China Cymbal stands as a testament to uncompromising sonic aggression. This distinctive cymbal emerged during a revolutionary period in music history and has maintained its position as the go–to choice for musicians demanding merciless, powerful energy across rock, metal, and punk genres since the 1980s.

At 20 inches with a heavy weight classification, this china cymbal produces loud to very loud volumes with a fairly pingy stick sound and lively intensity. The medium sustain and integrated bell character contribute to its dark, full, and raw sound profile that's both energetic and complex in its tonal range.

The heavy feel remains fairly controllable despite its explosive crash capabilities, making it suitable for higher volume playing situations where subtlety takes a backseat to sheer sonic impact. This extremely loud, nasty china cymbal delivers the wide range and complex mix that serious drummers require when pushing musical boundaries to their limits.
