Series Description: 2002 Black Big Beat represent a modernized, yet timeless interpretation of the legendary 2002 sound. Visually, the cymbals feature a distinctly new hammering pattern for the 2002 family, a slightly darkened, semi-matted finish and simplified black logos to distinguish the Big Beat set. With the 2002 Black Big Beat models, we take the 2002 sound into a new realm, while preserving the legendary 2002 heritage. Alloy: CuSn8 Bronze, also known as “2002 Bronze” Size: 24-inches Weight: medium thin Volume: medium low to loud Stick Sound: defined Intensity: lively Sustain: medium Bell Character: integrated Sound character: Warm, deep, brilliant, lush.

What is the Paiste 2002 Black Big Beat?
Paiste has been making cymbals in Switzerland since 1906, and the house sound is consistency. A model sounds like that model, kit to kit and year to year, which is why touring and session players specify a Paiste line rather than hunting for one good example of it. Alloy, lathing and hammering are matched to the series rather than the individual piece.
