It is made from CuSn8 alloy - the same bronze formula used in Paiste's 2002 line - and weighs approximately 1203g. The cymbal delivers a bold, trashy attack with a raw, aggressive character, a strong dark tone, and a quick decay, making it well suited to cutting through a mix with authority. Its traditional golden finish is typical of the era.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA great opportunity to own a 18” Paiste 505 China type cymbal at this price point.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"18”","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54853306974545,"sku":null,"price":95.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0775\/6913\/0833\/files\/2a2b5e00-2d19-4780-ac03-215936c755d4.jpg?v=1789140344","url":"https:\/\/www.audiotrader.co.uk\/products\/18-paiste-505-china-type-cymbal-cymbal-very-good","provider":"Audio Trader","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
