92% copper, 8% tin. A simple bronze alloy that helped to shape the sound of rock music beginning in the early 70's. This massively beefy (yet musical) 22" Paiste Crash is made from the legendary 2002 bronze alloy that has been the industry standard among professionals for nearly half a century. If you play Bonzo-sized drums, consider this Bonzo-sized crash. These cymbals are described as "Medium" by Paiste, but they have definitely have a medium-thin feel to them. It has a cavernously deep, explosive, bright crash that conveys a warm, lively shimmer. The stick sound is washy with lively intensity, medium sustain and the integrated bell has a musical, clear cut. This cymbal is the classic big rock crash cymbal. We love the tone of the 2002 Paiste cymbal line at Drum Center of Portsmouth. Check out our online demos with high quality audio.
