Review: "Available in 18", 19" and 20" diameters the Extra Thins tip the scales at 1,150g, 1,325g and 1,625g respectively, which is very little for cymbals of these diameters. Their supermodel-like waifness is obvious when handling as they flex willingly upon the slightest of touches. Small hammer marks cover the entirety of each Extra Thin while fine lathing is found on both sides.
Profiles are fairly flat and the bells are on the modest - if not small - size. The fact that these cymbals are named only as Extra Thins (as opposed to crashes) refers to their perceived intention of covering more than one discipline and being capable of being used as both light rides and hand-played cymbals. As with all Masters cymbals, Extra Thins are cast from CuSn20 (Paiste speak for B20) bronze and handworked through all stages of the manufacturing process.
Progressing to the 20" finds the extra inch bringing with it a change in character.
There is a similar step down in pitch and widening of the note but overall this cymbal feels a pinch heavier and a fraction less subtle than the other two diameters… it’s still supremely civilised for a 20" cymbal, though, and crashes beautifully. Riding gives a tighter stick sound over a more controllable wash while the flat of a hand is still enough to bring it to life."
