This Dixie by Paiste 20” Swiss made ride cymbal is a real treat! Made from Paiste’s custom CuSu8 alloy, and weighing in at 1648g, this crash has a stunning wash, with a quick decay, and good stick definition.
Judging by Cymbalutopia.com this cymbal's weight puts it in the 'Extra Light' category, quite rare for its age. The process used to make the cymbals was the same as Paiste's top line cymbals, they were fully hammered (not pressed) into shape.
These cymbals are getting rarer to find, people are holding on to them, and we can see why!
