Classic pre-serial number PAISTE Formula 602 selected by the factory for inclusion in one of their signature Joe Morello Sets. To my knowledge Morello is the only artist so-honored by PAISTE. This cymbal was clearly used but not abused with some smudging, finger prints and stick marks common to a 50+ year old instrument. No cracks and just the bare beginning of a keyhole. There are what appears to be small paint splatters on its playing side. Someone didn't throw a sheet over the set when painting the studio! Ink stamps " 20" " and "Joe Morello Set" are clearly visible. This is a medium weight cymbal at 2230 grams. The stamp is incomplete with "SWITZERLAND",  half of "602" and some of the trademark info clipped.
A few words on cymbal edges: I report and try to photograph any edge issues 1mm or greater although I believe they are inconsequential in terms of the instrument's performance. But they are there and they can be seen as well as felt and IMO a potential buyer deserves to know about them. Having said that, as I run my thumbnail around this cymbal's edge I do feel a few catches but they are too small to photograph. I would also argue after more than 50 years of drumming that even brand new cymbals may have edges that are less than completely smooth owing to the manufacturing process itself. 

I recently saw a pair of Joe Morello hi hats fetch $750.

I am offering this very rare but cosmetically imperfect ride cymbal for $350.00.

I am including a very nice Camber zippered sleeve.
