Paiste, Vic Firth and Sonor all created spectacular products for Nicko McBrain's The Book of Souls-tour with Iron Maiden. The art is in the detail, Paiste must have thought, and created 'Nicko's Treasures,' a unique and limited edition set inspired by the Mayan theme of the tour stage set. You can choose from four videos in which Nicko's Paiste Treasures are explained and demoed by either Nicko McBrain himself, or the recap of the cymbals on display at NAMM 2017. It is fun and interesting to watch the driven, inspiring and ever funny Nicko McBrain talk so passionately about his love for the Paiste company and even more about the love for his cymbals. Of this anomaly in cymbal production are only 83 crated sets worldwide made. The Treasures are indeed all unique, just like the drummer they are made for.

The Mayan Cymbal Theme
The artwork on the cymbals is inspired by the Mayan theme of the tour stage set. In the video where Nicko reveals the story of the Paiste Treasures you will get every detail and all the insights on the process of making them. Nicko goes into detail on all the aspects and items shown on this unique cymbal set.

Quick details that Nicko handles in the videos include: the elements of the artwork of sun god Tonatiuh, the date January 9, 1983 written in Mayan calendar glyphs, the day of Nicko's very first session with Iron Maiden. And much more, as well as why the Paiste logos are rendered in the famous Iron Maiden script.
