Paiste 2002 20inch Heavy Ride Cymbal

The legendary Paiste 2002 series has shaped the cymbal sound for generations of drummers across the globe, and this 20" Heavy Ride continues that proud tradition. Built upon the foundation of the original classic line–up, the current 2002 range has been thoughtfully expanded to include modern sounds that cater to today’s progressive popular music styles.

This 20" heavy ride cymbal produces a bright, full, warm and energetic sound character with a fairly wide range and clean mix. The stick sound is distinctly pingy with medium sustain and slightly dry intensity, while the bell offers strong, integrated character. Players will appreciate the defined ping that cuts through a full, warm, slightly dark wash.

With a volume range from medium loud to very loud and a fairly heavy feel, this cymbal is particularly well suited for louder playing situations. The medium to very loud volume capability makes it an excellent choice for rock, metal, and other high–energy musical genres where cutting power and presence are essential.
