• Reviews

  "These crashes responded extremely well to the lightest flick of a pencil-size stick yet retained its tone when hit with force. This broad dynamic range was astounding. I found myself probing for discrepancies or flaws, but I honestly couldn't find any. These Giant Beats are marked "thin," but Paiste stops short of designating them as rides or crashes. The application is up for grabs and depends on the unique touch of each drummer. They can articulate the passage of time as rides, but that's not their forte; they're built to respond like lightning" - T. Bruce Witted
