Paiste's Description: <<< - >>>
Review: "Jim Keltner’s involvement with the development of the 22" Swish appears to have been substantial, with Paiste describing the finished product as his concept of a Swish.

The 22" Swish is soft, dark and spiced with delicate trashiness, responding to anything that is waved in its direction. It’s an ideal alt-ride or even main ride, giving a smoky stick sound over a gentle wash.

Crashing brings forth a drenching of sweet attack and complex tonality while experimenting with mallets and brushes reveals a different characteristic with each pass. Without question, this is a truly exceptional cymbal."
