Paiste 18" Colour Sound 900 Series Red China

Explosive Attack with a Striking Red Finish

The Paiste 18" Colour Sound 900 Red China combines aggressive projection with a visually bold aesthetic. Crafted from CuSn8 Bronze, also known as 2002 Bronze, it delivers a medium-bright, full and focused tone with a wide frequency range and clean mix. The response is lively and explosive, producing a short sustain and fast decay that makes it ideal for sharp accents and dramatic transitions.

The Colour Sound coating slightly dries the sound, tightening the sustain and sharpening the attack for a more controlled impact. Despite the finish, it retains the flexible, giving feel of the 900 Series. The translucent red coating preserves the natural grooves and hammer marks while adding stage presence. Built for durability, the finish resists cracking, chipping and peeling, even under heavy use.

At Riffs & Licks Music, we think this China suits drummers who want explosive accents with visual impact and controlled decay across live and studio settings.
