"Sweet looking good sound china!"
Quality:
this china should last a very long time!!!

Value:
yes! maybe could be a little cheaper though

Desirability:
this is a beautiful china cymbal looks amazing!

Sound:
this china isnt very loud-i have a zildjian 18" china and it is about 3 times as loud-but thats b/c it a thinner model.

Ease of Use:
very easy just hit IT!!

Overall:
after i use this thing a lil bit it should start sounding better, i hope it was that way with my zildjian china, just needs to be "broke in"

Paiste PST 3 Series China Customer Review
Feature:
Cymbals don't have features...but if they did, this would be good!

Quality:
No cracks yet...I've had it for a while (about 4-5 months) and not damage to it at all. It looks great...very shiny

Value:
50 bucks for a Paiste china cymbal should be illegal...great value...great brand!

Desirability:
very pretty and shiny...I love the color!

Sound:
Great full piercing sound. Very dark and a little trashy, but mostly a very musical bright tone. kind of high pitch. hey, I like it! One thing though, on certain areas on the cymbal it makes a very annoying ping sound...kind of hard on the ears...but still good.

Ease of Use:
Um...hit it?

Support:
Never dealt with Paiste personally, but this product was delivered right away, it took maybe 3 days tops.

Overall:
Overall, great cymbal, great price, great looks, great sound and sturdiness. What else would you need in a cymbal?
