Paiste 2002 Crash Cymbal 19" USED bp
92% copper, 8% tin. A simple bronze alloy that helped to shape the sound of rock music beginning in the early 70's. This classic 19" Paiste Crash is made from the legendary 2002 bronze alloy that has been the industry standard among professionals for nearly half a century. These cymbals are described as "Medium" by Paiste, but they have definitely have a medium-thin feel to them. It has an immediately explosive, bright crash that conveys a warm, lively shimmer. The tone is well defined, even at softer strikes. The stick sound is washy with lively intensity and medium sustain and the integrated bell has a musical, clear cut. This cymbal is the classic rock cymbal, but would do well in any situation calling for a clear, bright crash. The 19" size is a wonderful compromise if you can't decide on an 18 or 20. We love the tone of the 2002 Paiste cymbal line.
