The series Rude is certainly professional quality and was created by Paiste at the end of the 1970s as a response for Metal and Punk drummers and remains one of the cymbals preferred for all those who need a cymbal with volume for its powerful and raw sound.

Alloy

CuSn8 is a unique B8 alloy by Paiste, also known as “bronce 2002” because it was used for the first time for mythical series. Unlike 2002 cymbals PST8 are made with bronze sheets (instead of melting individually) but the alloy used is identical.

Much of the manufacturing is automated but the hammered finished by hand and Paiste affirms that the tornado is also fully worked by hand; faithful to the Swiss precision, the resulting fine grooves are absolutely regular, with few deviations (if any) from the central orifice to the edge.
