Michail Toomas Paiste – an Estonian musician and composer living in Russia – decided to found a music store and publishing business in St. Petersburg during the early 1900s. Business was good, but the onset and subsequent events of the Russian revolution forced him to return to his native Estonia in 1917, where he opted to restart his business. It is here where the Paiste brand was really born. Initially, cymbals were designed and produced to meet the needs of traditional marching and concert bands - however, with the emergence of the drum set as we know it today, Turkish style cymbals were needed to keep up with an ever-increasing demand. These early instruments received international recognition, awards and acclaim, and were soon being shipped overseas to the USA and the rest of Europe.

A selection of drummers endorsed by Paiste includes Nick Mason (Pink Floyd), Nicko McBrain (Iron Maiden), Pat Carney (The Black Keys), Stewart Copeland (The Police), Brad Wilk (Rage Against the Machine) and Joey Jordison (ex-Slipknot). This range of contrasting genres and styles is a true testament to the versatility, performance and sound of Paiste cymbals!

About the PST X Series Cymbals

Style: Filthy & Gritty Effects.
The PST X consists of a number of budget friendly effect cymbals. Each adds a new, individual tone to your kit. With a largely dirty, gritty sound quality (courtesy of the varying sized holes across their surfaces), this range adds explosive sonic capabilities to your drumming arsenal. They are particularly good during a live setting, and are sure to catch an audience’s attention with their distinct silky look and trashy voicing.

Sound character: noisy, dirty, trashy, exotic, explosive effect sounds. Pure Bells are warm, calm and sustaining.
