The Paiste PST5 Rock Ride Cymbal 20" is a 20" ride cymbal, crafted from bronze with a heavy gauge and brilliant finish. Paiste Sound Technology stands for first-class manufactured cymbals and high quality sound design at an affordable price. PST5 is the entry to Paiste's world of bronze cymbals and since its introduction in 2005, it continues to be a best seller. Considering recent musical trends, the PST5 was newly designed by Paiste's Swiss Sound Development Team.

Visually the PST5 were consciously altered only in detail but their fundamental sonic value changed considerably. The cymbals are lighter resulting in a deeper, warmer sound while preserving its bright basic character. They have increased flexibility resulting in a more appealing feel. Overall the new PST5 is significantly more musical. The PST5 Rock Ride Cymbals have a bright powerful clear sharp sound character, with a narrow range and clean mix. This cymbal has a heavy feel and piercing clear ping over a controlled wash, with a very strong, cutting bell sound making it an assertive ride cymbal for loud situations.
